In the story "Charles" by Shirley Jackson, Laurie suggests that Charles will eventually face consequences for his misbehavior at school. He implies that Charles's disruptive actions will lead to a reprimand or punishment from the teacher or the school. This suggestion reflects Laurie's understanding of the need for accountability and the eventual repercussions of one's actions, even if he initially finds Charles's antics amusing or entertaining. Ultimately, it highlights the theme of the duality in behavior and the complexity of childhood experiences.
