I think it's really interesting how Charlie is canonically Catholic and Pim is most commonly headcanoned as agnostic or atheist. It really subverts expectations imo. Charlie often has the cynical attitude of a stereotypical Reddit atheist, and there are plenty of people who act and dress like Pim who cite a higher power as motivation for their deeds. So to do the opposite is a great choice by the show and fandom and creates so many unique opportunities for character exploration.

It’s 2025 and I just reread this and I love it sm I’m just gonna repost

Okay my brain is whirring rn so I haaaaave to post- here’s a lengthy headcanon about Charlie’s family and upbringing.

I feel like Charlie grew up always a quiet kid. Which wasn’t a bad thing, he would still act up and scream and cry like any other kid but it was more concealed. I think both of his parents argued a lot- they were probably quite young to even be parents too, which means he would spend more time with his uncle, who I’d like to think lived in like a crappy trailer, with strangers that came in and out sometimes.

Charlie’s uncle is like a mix of the weirdo uncle you were told to avoid, and that one favourite uncle everyone has. Since Charlie’s family is relatively small, they got very close. His uncle never really treated him like family and instead acted as his mentor, who really shouldn’t have been a mentor. He would cuss and swear around Charlie often, and would retell traumatic and violent stories of his past to Charlie as a young child. His mum would always get very upset if he found Charlie’s dad sent him to his uncle, and when Charlie got older he would sneak out more often to see him. I feel Charlie’s uncle and his mum would clash very often. In the show, Charlie will casually bring up his uncle’s crimes, probably from how desensitised he is either from social media, or just hearing his uncles stories as a child.

Charlie’s uncle didn’t live in a very safe area, and his uncle didn’t really think of his safety. Charlie to him was just that one kid that his brother had by accident. He liked him but that’s all there was to it. Just indifference. I also think he lived a lavish lifestyle full of drugs and drinking, which he never at all hid from Charlie. Sometimes roughhousing that went too far. Charlie’s uncle would also spew masculine ideologies, like not to cry, and often spoke down on people that were different.

I’d like to think his mum actually gave a shit about her son’s upbringing, and his grandma (of mums side) suggested she raised him as a catholic and nurture him more. His grandma was nice too when he saw her, and was the better substitute for his uncle. Though his parents were definitely not cut out to be parents, his mom and grandma were the ones who cared the most compared to his dad, who only cared when he actually remembered his existence. It never really hurt Charlie, but it definitely made him see his dad as less of his parent of more of a person he wasn’t familiar with.

I think Charlie also grew up quite quickly for his age because of his uncle, and also cos he wasn’t being monitored he grew pessimistic even as a child and early on in his teens, which just kinda stuck as an adult. His dad rarely attended parents evening, and could never be relied on to pick him up after school. Because his parents didn’t seem to care, Charlie would start to truant and show up late to school, bunk, or just wouldn’t show up at all. School was bullshit anyways to him, it’s not like he would need any of this. (That’s probably something his uncle would say)

On the instances he did go, it was probably from his mom telling him off when she found out, in hopes she’d get off his ass.

Charlie wasn’t a bad kid. He just couldn’t find it in himself to care. It’s not like anyone was motivating him, so who cares? They didn’t, so he didn’t.

He probably made friends with other kids similar to him. Ironically, truanting turned him into a social butterfly, and he made friends, real people that he could actually socialise with instead of his psychopath uncle. This carried on to his young adult years, and Charlie has a lot of friends now, counting on socials and in person too. Charlie spends most of his young adult years and even now at social gatherings.

I’d like to think it was his mom who pushed him to go to the smiling friends charity for work. I see her as like this stern figure who would butt heads with Charlie often, she’d scream at him if she didn’t think she was getting through to him (he’d scream back) and they’d argue a lot, but she has a genuine deep love for him and he knows it.

I think as Charlie got older and socialised more with other people, the less time he spent with his uncle. He didn’t love him any less though, and still thinks of him very highly and fondly, even thought everyone around him can tell he’s a psycho.

Charlie doesn’t like to bring up his family to friends. Not even to his girlfriend, leaving his background a mystery. The only reason being is that he knows that he didn’t grow up like other children, and doesn’t want to be judged for it, almost out of embarrassment. He gets very defensive too.

He loves his mum though, and she still calls often to make sure he’s okay and still breathing. He doesn’t talk to his dad at all to be honest, his parents split some time ago. Rarely will he call, and Charlie dreads talking to him because they don’t have anything to talk about. He’s a stranger to his own kid.

He never told any of his family that he died.

TL;DR Charlie is a mummies boy.
