Bias?[edit]

"Gradgrind is the most dynamic character in Hard Times since he came to recognize that emotions are important when his daughter Louisa had an emotional breakdown." - is this not just a matter of opinion? --TimothyJacobson (talk) 14:22, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

YOU'RE JUST A MATTER OF OPINION!!!!! 70.33.230.9 (talk) 20:02, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Other thoughts[edit]

Should this not be a disambiguous page, to separate between Gradgrind Jr, and Gradgrind Snr? Also (either on this page or on a disambig page) should it not be mentioned that the stage version of Hard Times was called Gradgrind? And that the word has come into common parlance for someone who cares more about statistics than people?--TimothyJacobson (talk) 14:25, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect information.[edit]

Thomas Gradgrind is not the headmaster of the school,that is M'Chokemchild.Gradgrind is actually the person who pays for the school.213.205.252.208 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 18:30, 14 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
