According to Karen Grassle, producers rejected her suggestion to have her character in Little House on the Prairie have a nervous breakdown.
For those who don’t know, Little House on the Prairie depicted some aspects of this life in a more realistic manner. One well-known picture of American history is the strong frontier woman who works hard alongside her husband while simultaneously taking care of the home and family.
Still, there were other elements that the show refused to portray. The notion of Caroline Inglass experiencing a nervous breakdown was one of them.
Recently, Grassle, who portrayed Caroline Inglass, responded to fan inquiries on the Prairie TikTok account’s official Little House.
