Summer Lane

Summer Lane is a female character in the series Daria. She appears only once on-screen, during the epsiode Lane Miserables.

Overview and Family
Summer is daughter of Vincent and Amanda Lane, and the oldest sibling of Wind Lane, Penny Lane, Trent Lane and Jane Lane.

Summer does not live in Lawndale. She has four children (The Teachings of Don Jake), though only two of them, Adrian and Courtney, are shown in the series or the books. It is hinted in both sources that her children run away from home periodically. It is unknown if she is married.

In Fanfiction
Summer is often portrayed as a uncaring or nigligent mother, thus her children running away. In Nine-Eleven and Counting, by TAG, she is described as having been neglected during childhood (along with her siblings) and that she has had children but failed to raise them.
