I'll say this right now, this movie was very realistic. It's true, yes, mothers, and parents do not believe their children enough when it comes to child abuse... This movie depicts what many of us went through, and that's hell when an adult beats and abuses us.
In my opinion, the mother is very guilty, when the first time they found that Bone got abused by the "daddy". The first half of the movie is a pain to sit through, as nothing is happening, and feels forced in. But then the other half is very realistic, and tragic to look at.
I think the first 30 minutes of the movie, barely connect to the movie, and then the other 1 hour was the movie itself. Acting amazing. This was a movie about a girl being completely placed behind by her mother, who cares more about finding a husband, and cares more for the husband, while she's all alone with her little sister. Even when the abuse begins, the mother just lets it be, instead of acting up instantly...
