We stan representation of shitty parents cause it needs to be talked about more cause some families are just shitty and theres nothing you can do about it

It's makes so much sense to distrust offoritis when you are an abusied child. Like the first thing I did when I meet my new grandfather was kick his leg. I was under the age of 3 and I thought that I was having to move agian and life with him.

Fun fact that no one asked for: this is actually how a lot of kids view CPS, especially if they grew up hearing horror stories about them or if their parents taught them as such. I’m not saying that the Willoughbys thought this, because I didn’t see any of that upbringing in the film, but I liked the touch.

Honestly I love the Willoughbys so much and it’s so much under appreciated

I always gravitate to the darker type of movies and characters. My favorite CareBear is Grumpy bear. I loved this movie. I kinda wish they explained how they survived being babies.

Holy Crap! I don't know why it took me until re-watching your review to realize that the kids don't seem to go to school!! Because they know nothing about the outside world, I very much doubt that their parents homeschooled them so this is actually a plot hole. Who taught them how to read? Who taught them anything?! I've watched this movie like 10 times and I've only just realized this!

When people think of neglectful parents, they often think an single mom (sometimes an couple) living in poverty (sometimes an addict), having CPS forcefully take away the kids due to being too poor. The truth is both poor and rich parent(s) have their kid(s) taken away due to neglect/abuse. The truth is outside the USA, most 1st world countries have social safely nets so parent(s) who are poor can raise their kid(s) with love and care that they deserve. (I'm Not from USA) my 1st cousin who lives 2 hours away in the city, became an single dad at 21 to an 10 month old, because his girlfriend/baby mama loved drugs more then her baby girl. He never when to collage, works in retail. He could only afford daycare due to our government support program, because baby mama refused to pay child support ever. His daughter is the apple of his eye. She's 8 years old now (her mom died years ago from OD, she doesn't remember her), an sweet well adjusted child with lots of friends and good grades.

I loved the movie but had the wonderful/s. idea to watch it with my bio parents during one of the family visits when I was in foster care, not a mood.

I liked this movie. I wish it had a more positive reception.

I really loved this movie

2:48 And the entire length of their lives.

Sir, you have great taste

Thanks for convincing me to watch this movie. I almost gave up on it. My anxiety manifests in strange ways with movies and books. I'm glad I didn't.

Aw yeah it was the best film

Okay I'm curious though when they were all split up what were the families they ended up in like
