    The story is able to lastly learn how to raise the children without favouritism, be assertive, but not to be put upon.

And it connecting with the history which play a critical role in social movements. Therefore, people cannot speak for very long in assumption of differences without acknowledging others.

    This book told me about a family issues that might happend in toxic relationship. James' family is not a healthy family, it described by the title on this book.

    I think this book is meaningful. It has deep moral value about family. Love it.
