Why don’t Mabel and Dipper just stay in Gravity Falls and go to high school there? Dipper could learn from Ford and Mabel could stay with her friends.

I’ve solved all the problems!! 

Yeah it’s not like they have parents back home who love and await them. Not like they’re only 13.

If they love them so much why don’t call them in all the first summer they spend away from home ?

Ive thought of that too, but yea, the thing with their parents could be a problem, but its no different than parents who send their kids to boarding schools.

And I dont think its not like their parents haven’t called, its more likely we just that we haven’t seen the conversations on screen due to time constraints. We did see Stanley talking to them on the phone in ‘Gideon Rises’, as well as Mabel writing them a letter in ‘Dungeons, Dungeons and more Dungeons’, so its not like there is no correspondence.

But you would think that if they would be able to be convinced to let Dipper stay, letting Mabel stay wouldn’t be so much of a stretch either. They have always been together, and honestly the two seem to be happier and to be much more attached to Gravity Falls than they do to Piedmont, from what little we see from the flashbacks. Dipper was obviously bullied, and it seemed that even Mabel had a hard time at school, despite her ‘magnetic personality’.

I imagine if they did stay, Dipper and Mabel would likely go home to visit their parents during holidays, and spend the school year in Gravity Falls, as if they were at a boarding school.
