My heart also broke for the dad, as he didn't know Sam was kidnapped. I would be very unsure of how to handle that. Would you cut off the communication, or keep it? Very tricky

So glad you are watching this! I do feel bad on it being an emotional rollercoaster. Main reason I decided this would be a good movie for you to watch was it was the best case scenario for this kind of situation. My biggest fear would be abuse, But thank God Sam/Ben wasn't abused. Also in the book, that goes into a bit more detail with both Beth and Vincent-he did get counselling. And wished they showed that in the movie. And my heart also went out to Vincent, who I felt got leftover scraps of love from the parents-sadly edit: And agreed that the mom was a bit much-Beth-at times with Pat. Pat was doing nothing wrong, in general. A lot of that felt like projection/feeling guilty to me
