It’s evidence,” Allio said as explanation. “It takes time for us to collect the samples we need before we can let her get cleaned up.”Her words came out with a sharp edge as her grip on the doorframe tightened.

I am unfamiliar with DID so it was interesting to read about a character with this mental health problem. The amount of research that went into this book must have been great! But I wonder how much was used to fit the story because ultimately, it’s nothing that would happen in real life. Nevertheless, it was informative if anything to learn about DID (even if the author mentioned that some things were altered). A mother’s love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity, it dares all things and crushes down remorsefully all that stands in its path. – Agatha Christie Quotes From DadThere is the mystery of who really murdered Penny’s birth mother, is she innocent or guilty? We aren’t sure really how it was done and whether there are others behind the scenes manipulating the way Penny is being treated and how her defense should be handled. Be patient with your parents. When we are young, the world is ours and we can let our ambitions guide what happens. But think about how difficult it can be for parents to adjust to rapid changes that we take for granted.

HOLD TF UP LMAOOO did the editor accidentally paste that sentence about adolescence in there... what is the correlation between breast buds and Harry Potter? And why was this told from the mom's POV. A teenage daughter needs your guidance and love now more than ever. Don’t give up on her. – Brenda Kosciuk

One of my pastimes is watching terrible Lifetime movies on Tubi, riffing throughout as they rarely ever disappoint in the cheese factor. Then here comes The Perfect Daughter, a film just from the title I figured would be an angst and cringe filled yarn. Incredibly, this is a very fine movie. Honestly! What's stopping me from rounding up is that the characters aren't much more than cliches. (Penny's 'alter' Eve is constantly making not-funny, MEAN GIRL snarky one-liners and it was annoying enough that I was hoping she 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 be found guilty.) Grace doesn’t want to believe her daughter can commit such a brutal crime and actually her daughter Penny is long gone, her body is invaded by her alter persona Eve who has no idea why she’s at the police station. hi, I have a problem my mom always compares me to my other firneds when i mess up and says things like “i bet (friend) dosen’t do that!” And that makes me feel as if i’m not good enough and that she deserves a better child She stands firmly on her own two feet and I just behind her; should she ever need me. – @j.ironword
