Ever since we overtook /snow as the premier place to shitpost on the Hartleys, I’m sure we’ve gained more than a few people that think we’re terrible. Hell, we are! But, there’s some shit we wouldn’t do. We wouldn’t let our profoundly disabled daughter slowly dislocate her thumb until it’s floating agonizingly out of its socket for the rest of her short life. Ever dislocate something, or seen someone who has? Can you imagine never having it put back in place? We’re bad, but we wouldn’t deny her a simple fucking corrective hand brace because we thought “oh her hands are so cute that way! Lemme paint those nails!”. So, if you read this, and think we’re monsters, just look at this picture, and tell me where the monsters are now...

I'd send a nice chilled tear-filled martini icon for this post, but I can't, so please enjoy your winner badge instead.
Also see: denying the girls painkillers or sedation to deal with the constant crippling rictus that is incredibly painful; making more fun of them than we could ever do by dressing them up in costumes they had no ability to enjoy or comprehend, not being able to see or interpret stimuli at all, let alone anything as complex as a character from a movie or book and setting them up in weird tableaus like some weird serial killer shit gone wrong; torturing them by dipping them in the ocean or onto the sand or into a hot tub; posting the most humiliating anecdotes about their toilet habits, their stenches and soiling themselves for laughs that if you truly believed those girls were people, you would never contemplate doing to them; not allowing doctors to properly track Lola's brain condition, oh and lying to doctors about Claire's abilities because apparently why not. Oh, and ignoring your one functional child for years, demoting him to the status of an unloved pet because he does not require 24/7 care.
The family dynamic and the state of those two girls was so horrifying you either puke, rage or make sick jokes about it.
