Every family has it's secrets but this family trumps all. The parents are functioning alcoholics who provide shelter  and food but nothing in the fields of warmth, direction or supervision. The verbal and emotional abuse were enough to make me cringe, the physical abuse was not as glaring. The children have many normal relationships away from home. They want love and acceptance but even when they share their successes with their parents there is still a lack of parental pride. I think this is an important story as it reminds us that we never know what goes on in other peoples homes, and why some people live with abuse instead of reporting it.
