While found I had to keep reading this book--it moves you along--I didn't really relate to the characters and actually had a hard time feeling ANY sympathy for the parents. It was upsetting to me to see how little disregard they had for their children. It is amazing that they turned out as well as they did. While I applaud the author for her courage, I'm not sure what the purpose for telling this story was.
