There's also the possibility of family folklore. Bree wasn't there when her parents me (obviously), but has heard them tell the tale. Stories that get told and re-told can sometimes change in the telling...not much, not as a purposeful lie, but just to make the story..."better."

Just another thought...maybe...?

even someone who is shy and introverted can have moments of passion.
Especially when they find something that they feel strongly about.


And Bree describes her mother as someone who takes her side against her father, that does not mean she was not emotionally the closest with her father. A close relationship between Bree and her father may be the reason why her mother would take her side more often.

I think it is possible for Bree to have a closer relationship with her Dad, but her mom was better at understanding a young girls desires (needing to spend the day at home with a hot water bottle once a month...you know the things you would have to be a woman to relate to), and mom stood up for Bree during those times (when Dad just didn't get it) so Bree thought (at the time), that mom would understand and side with her on the party thing.
As far as the assertive thing...I think the Creators have a really hard job of writing the story as they go along. If you think about it most writers are able to fully develop their characters, and decide how important each character's role in the story will be. LG15 Creators are not given that luxury because we influence the story and are able to change the direction of the characters, or plot as the story unfolds. So our story is going to have a few inconsistencies as the creators change direction of the story based on OUR responses.

We see the same character behavior transition with Alex's character:

i dunno, bree did kind of reverse her story of her mom , but she told us how her parents met before she met with her dad, so we don't really know what information he added in that exchange.

that being said, it wouldn't be the first reversal or loose end.

Well, not really. I personally think Bree's dad just accepted after Bree's mom had already converted, so that they wouldn't create endless conflicts over it (not to mention all the benefits The Order would have offered to him if he accepted as well ). It's only when Bree is being prepared for the ceremony that dad realizes something isn't right and later tries to defect.
