I actually really like Carly most of the time, perhaps she makes good grades and is generally a non issue because (and im possibly overreaching but) subconsciously she sees how much Spencer does to raise her, with her dad overseas and mother notably absent she doesn't want to be a burden on him.

that said she like all the other characters has her flaws and quirks, and to be fair she didn't ask for her room to burn down and lose everything personal that was important to her. at the end of the day, shes a solid friend, dependable, and honest.
