It's a part of our social make up and it's sickening ... but when a group is made to hate one specific person or group of people, they feel empowered and bond together as a group when they do this type of stuff to the outcast.

The only reason they escaped was because they convinced the guy the baby needed something and they were able to break down half the front door and a neighbor came running over and pulled her out and they were saved...it reminds me of this story because you are CLOSED off from civilization with no end in sight because you are stuck in a void where no one knows you exist.

People end up in tough situations. But even their dad should have been there on a regular basis, paying attention to their appearance and making sure they were really okay. The school did nothing.
