The Parent Trap II (1986 TV Movie) User Reviews

Decent sequel with Sharon and Susan (Hayley Mills) in their late 30s

[Wuchakk · 6/10 · 16 July 2015]

Released to TV in 1986, "The Parent Trap II" is a sequel to the popular 1961 film. It's 25 years later and so the twin sisters, Sharon and Susan (both played by Hayley Mills) are in their late 30s. Sharon is single with a daughter in Florida while Susan is married and lives in California. Sharon's daughter (Carrie Kei Heim) teams up with her best friend (Bridgette Andersen) to match-up her mother with her friend's father (Tom Skerritt). Susan secretly flies in from California to help the girls in their 'parent trap.'

While this sequel is nowhere close to being as good as the original, it's a must-see for fans of the latter. After all, you get to see what Sharon and Susan look like 25 years later and what they're doing. The two girls are cute and amiable despite their well-intended, but deceptive antics. Because this is such a lesser movie than the original people tend to over-criticize it, but it's really not that bad. It's fun and continues the story, plus it doesn't overstay its welcome.

The movie runs 81 minutes and was shot in Tampa Florida.

GRADE: B-

Suitably entertaining

[r96sk · 7/10 · 2 July 2020]

I did not expect to enjoy this, and yet I did.

'The Parent Trap II' somehow, despite a cavernous 25-year gap from the original, manages to create a suitably entertaining sequel. The premise to this one is arguably the more realistic of the two, though the characters themselves actually react more unrealistically - it's kinda odd, but actually works.

Nikki and Mary are the child stars of this, the former is the daughter of Sharon and niece of Susan; both of whom are the leads in 1961's 'The Parent Trap'. The aforementioned are again portrayed by Hayley Mills, somewhat surprisingly but very much welcome. She does a good job, as do Carrie Kei Heim (Nikki) and Bridgette Andersen (Mary). Tom Skerritt plays the role of Bill competently, also.

It most definitely isn't a great production and isn't a patch on the first one. However, for what it is - a made-for-TV sequel - I actually rate it. I don't hold high hopes for the other two follow-ups, though perhaps they'll surprise me like this did.

If you loved the original 1960's film, you will probably like this one, too

[inkblot11 · 6/10 · 2 June 2008]

In the original Parent Trap, as everyone knows, Sharon (Hayley Mills) and Susan (also Hayley Mills) were separated at birth by divorcing parents. They met years later at summer camp, wanted to stay close and hatched a plan to get their parents back together again. Now, in the sequel, Sharon (a grown-up Hayley Mills) is also a divorced single mother to Nicole, a pre-teen gal with a good imagination. As it happens, Sharon's ex has remarried and moved on, but Sharon doesn't have the courage to date yet, devoting all of her time to her job and to Nicole. It is Sharon's plan to move to New York City, from Tampa, for a what she sees as a better job opportunity. But Nicole, who has just met a wonderful new friend, Mary, at summer school, does not want to leave Florida. Therefore, Nicole and Mary decide to hatch some matchmaking plans themselves. After all, Mary's father, Bill, is a handsome widower who seems a good match for Sharon. The two little girls even telephone Sharon's twin, Susan (also Hayley Mills), a married Californian, to come to Florida, where she will pose as Sharon and "flirt" with Bill, getting his attention. Can such a plan, er, trap, work? As a youngster in the early sixties, there were few films I enjoyed more than the Parent Trap. Mills was a talented and beautiful young star and the film had considerable "girl power", making it a wonderful choice for my three sisters and myself. Therefore, when I walked into the supermarket and saw a combination DVD of the original and the sequel I never knew existed, I plunked down my ten dollars. It was money well spent. No, the second film is not as worthy as the original but it is still delightful and fun. Mills is quite nice as the "getting-back-on-my-feet" single mother and as the sunnier twin, Susan. Tom Skerritt, as Bill, provides a good-looking and humorous suitor for Sharon while the two young girls in the film are fine, too. While the cinematography and production values are somewhat lacking, there are nice costumes and a pretty Floridian setting. Best of all, the script has originality and zest, especially when it comes to creating situations of mistaken identity. Therefore, if you consider the original movie to be your cup of cinematic tea, do try to find the sequel, too. Any showing of the films together, at a young gals' sleepover, for example, will be a big hit with the audience.

Takes me back to the good old days

[JanieJane · 28 April 2003]

Just about any 80's kid who had the Disney channel remembers this movie with great fondness...this was one of my favorite movies, and my sister and I loved to watch it over and over. I wanted to BE Nikki and Mary...I wanted their clothes, their bikes, their rooms, their parents...they even made me want to go to summer school! (Sort of.) Watching the movie always takes me back to when I was 8 years old and a big fan of the "Parent Trap" movies (I saw the original first). This is a great movie to watch as a kid (especially when you're a girl) since it shows the kids trying to control their parents' destinies by scheming to get them together. It's always fun to watch a movie where the kids are in control, instead of the parents!

As for the movie itself, it's a cute and fun sequel to the popular original, but don't expect a movie in the same caliber. This was a made-for-the Disney Channel-movie, after all. And since it's told through the point of view of the kids, it's clearly targeted to a pre-teen audience. Keeping this in mind, you should enjoy the film once you realize that it's completely different than the original in terms of production value, writing, setting, plot, you name it. Fans of Hayley Mills should get a kick out of seeing her reprise her role as the famous twins 25 years later.

Fun!

[BandSAboutMovies · 6/10 · 12 May 2023]

25 years after the first film, Sharon McKendrick Ferris (Hayley Mills) is a divorced single mother living in Tampa. Her daughter Nikki (Carrie Kei Heim) is a lot like her mom used to be: unhappy, sick of moving around and not wanting to attend an all-girls school.

As Nikki goes to summer school, she becomes friends with Mary Grand (Bridgette Andersen, who would go on to star in Cannon's Too Much) and the two decide to fix up Mary's dad Bill (Tom Skerritt) with Sharon and therefore get to see their parents happy and have their friendship not go long distance. When the first few dates don't go well, the girls get Nikki's aunt Susan Evers Carey (also Hayley Mills) involved.

Sharon figures it out and decides to go on a date with Susan's husband Brian (Alex Harvey) and that seems like really taking things too far. Then again, Susan is on a date with Bill pretending to be Sharon, so who knows with these sisters who seem to swing.

Well, through the magic of tween trickery, Sharon and Bill get abandoned on a boat that goes out to sea and end up falling for one another. Oh Disney TV movies, how you twist, you turn and then you do things that make no sense after it seems like we've already reached the end of the movie.

If you're a fan of Mills, the names Nikki Ferris and Mary Grand reference her parts in The Moon-Spinners and In Search of the Castaways.

Ronald F. Maxwell is an interesting pick for a Disney Channel director, seeing as how he made Little Darlings. This was written by Stu Krieger, who also was the scriptwriter for Where the Boys Are 84, Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century and Phantom of the Megaplex.

There would be as long a wait until the next movie.

Wow.

[sublimer13 · 1/10 · 2 October 2007]

Wow.

This film.

What can I say? Disney has become infamous in the last decade for producing cheap sequels to their beloved animated classics. However, from 1986-1989, they produced a slew of three forgettable, low-budget, made-for-television sequels to their 1961 classic, The Parent Trap.

The Parent Trap is an amazing film. I grew up with it, for God's sake. Picking it up for $9.99 at Circuit City was a steal-- I barely remembered Parent Trap II (having seen it a few times on Disney Channel as a kid in the nineties), but nonetheless braced myself for the worst when I popped it in to the DVD player (it comes on Disc 1 of the set). My expectations were not unfounded.

The characters, plot, cinematography and dialogue are duds. Mary's father is cited as "gorgeous," but he looks like a creepy pedophile. His maid, Florence, is a cheap imitation of the beloved Verbena from the original, uttering "I don't say a word" twice. Other supporting characters are just as forgettable. That annoying girl in summer school has a BRONX accent and they're in Florida, for God's sake. And I was not surprised to see that the guy who wrote this "teleplay" never got work again. His characters are SO utterly exaggerated and unbelievable as human beings: eleven year olds CONSTANTLY going on about "cute" boys? Don't think so. Not to mention the fact that this film doesn't tie in with the first AT ALL. The scheme Mary and Nikki "cook up" is uninspired. Susan is introduced doing some "yoga" in the beginning. As Mary would say: "Yikes." The montage at the beginning of scenes from the original is just out-of-place and unnecessary. Also, watch out for the clear rip-off of the original's ending!

Hayley Mills. Hayley Mills. What were you thinking? Her talents have greatly diminished in the thirty-five year gap between Parent Trap I and II. She overreacts and her inflections are enough to make me wanna toss my cookies all over the floor. Katherine Fei Heim is utterly talentless. She reminds me of Pippi Longstocking and I wish she'd march back to Villa Vilekula where she belongs! She is a horrid actress and when she screams "YAHOO!" I want to wring her neck...

Parent Trap II is basically four episodes of any cheesy sitcom from the '80s spliced together. Nearly half as long as the original at eighty minutes, its plot makes viewing seem to last for eons. Thank God Parent Trap III and IV have faded away into oblivion. The fourth is titled "Hawaiin Honeymoon." Need I say more?

It would be a neat for Hayley to reprise her role in the Parent Trap wouldn't it?

[fomlife777 · 3/10 · 17 September 2008]

There are several reason to make a sequel to a popular film.

1. The story is so big that 1 film can't contain it, like 'Lord of the Rings' 'Star Wars' and 'Rocky'.

2. The popularity of the film warrant's another adventure of the protagonist like 'Indiana Jones' 'James Bond' and 'Godzilla'. 3. A very good reason I thought of before writing this review, but I have since forgotten what it was.

4. The movie was a horror movie in which it is impossible not to make a sequel, like 'Friday the 13th', 'Scream', or 'Air Bud'.

5. The film was so popular that it would be way cool to make a sequel with the same crew and cast like 'Ghostbusters', 'Pirates of the Caribbean', or 'The Parent Trap'.

The 5th category usually suffers artistic merit due to the fact that the producers or director don't give a Cockily-doodily-doo about the script as long as they can make a film with the previous film' title in it. There may have been a time when Disney cared about the quality of their scripts and even made their TV movies as high quality as their feature length features. Pixar cares about this aspect of film making and so far has not released any schlock because of this.

The idea of a sequel to 1961's 'The Parent Trap', seems like a good idea on paper. At the end of the first film I wondered what became of the twins and what happen to their lives after the film ended. Someone else thought of this and got Hayley Mills to sign on to reprise her role as twins Susan and Sharon. Parent Trap 3 and 4 were also green lighted.

Was it worth the effort? Lets compare the two films.

Parent Trap (Original) Parent Trap (sequel) Has a Compelling YES NOOOO Story to be told Good Moral Message YES Not Really Charm YES NO Original YES NO ,NO, NO Funny YES Forced Wit YES NO WAY Disney MAGIC HECK YEAH Tinker Bell was Shot Smiles BIG Frowns

The only reason to own or rent this film is because it is on the same disc as the Original Movie. Perhaps it is better that Disney has not released PT 3 and 4 on Disc or VHS because it shows someone somewhere still cares about artistic merit or quality. That person is working on a killer script where Hayley reprises her role as Pollyanna.

Cute

[Liza-19 · 8/10 · 22 July 2003]

I've always had a soft-spot for this movie. I can't remember a time when I didn't know the original "The Parent Trap." My father is so in love with Hayley Mills that I just barely escaped being named Hayley - in fact, if you want the truth - had my last name not also begun with an "H" it's very likely that it would be my name.

Anyway, growing up with a father who is THAT devoted to Hayley Mills, there's no way I could avoid watching this. I saw it the first time it came on in 1986, when I was four years old. No, it's not as good as the original, but I always liked it. It's really cute. The script is well-written. Yes, it borders on the ridiculous, but - HELLO - you want to tell me that "The Parent Trap" doesn't? Nah, they're both unlikely stories, held together by the wonderful Hayley Mills.

Tom Skirrett does a wonderful job, and as a child of the '80s, I can't help but mention the two young stars who actually do turn in wonderful performances. First there's little Brigette Andersen - a beautiful little girl (those of us who were kids in the '80s will remember her as Gretel from Faerie Tale Theatre) who sadly, passed away in 1997. And then there's sweet Carrie Kei Heim - who will always be best known to me as Cornelia in "Santa Claus." A spunky red-head who's surprisingly, a very good actress - even if she does look nothing like Hayley Mills. Well, despite its 1980s-made-for-TV-look (there's even a reference to Ralph Macchio - God save us!) I still love this movie, and I always will.

Worst.Movie.Ever.

[janitadavis · 1/10 · 18 December 2005]

The only thing that saves this gratuitous piece of made-for-TV garbage is the opening credits which remind you how great the first one was. When I was young I would re-watch the credits over and over again, and even eventually taped over the movie but kept the credits. The main characters were terribly acted by the two girls who manage to grate on the nerves pretty much the moment one meets them. The story was uninspired and the supporting cast was boring. No chemistry between Hayley and whats-his-face. Not even comparable to the first one and frankly should be stricken from all records. Except those wonderful opening credits. Hayley was such a doll.

Great movie for young girls, but should have had more to do with the original

[Pookiebooz · 8/10 · 14 September 2005]

I like this movie. I am an adult female in my 20's and when I was little this was a favorite of mine. It's very cute, and it portrays well how friends are as children. I mean, when I was little my friends and I used to giggle and talk about how cool it would be if we were sisters (although we never actually tried to make it happen). This is just a fun movie. But...this movie, in my opinion, has very little to do with the original. Thank goodness it at least had Hayley Mills in it. Other than that and a brief reference or two to the original (like a picture of the young Susan/Sharon in a tent while camping), Parent Trap II is it's own separate movie. I think fans of the original such as myself would have LOVED for a Parent Trap sequel to focus on more other characters from the first one. We don't find out how Mom and Dad are doing (Mitch and Maggie), and we don't know anything about Susan's children that she says "are in camp." I realize that the focus is on Sharon's daughter Nikki and that's what Parent Trap II is based on. It would have been so nice to have more in the movie with details of the whole family. So it's better to watch this movie as it's own original, while getting a little kick out of seeing Hayley as a mom, but if you love the original don't expect that same magic.

Lame!

[sherrypeck19825 · 1/10 · 21 June 2009]

The Parent Trap II is all about the daughter of the grown up Sharon (the same Sharon from the 1st movie, and played by the same actress Hayley Mills) trying to get her mother (Sharon) together with the single father of her school friend. I watched an hour of it and couldn't keep my attention from wandering off. The acting was lame and the story line just seemed like a ripped off rewrite of the original. The only upside was seeing the lovely Hayley Mills as a young adult. So pretty. Note: Have you seen the TV show "Good Morning, Miss Bliss" (Saved By The Bell: the junior high years)? Hayley Mills plays a Teacher (Miss Bliss) on that show.

Loved it as a kid

[lheist · 18 April 2003]

OK, so looking back on this movie now that I'm an adult, I realize it is probably not the most quality movie I have ever seen. But as a kid, I loved it. I taped it off of the Wonderful World of Disney and watched it over and over. There are some very funny lines, and I love how the maid is nosy, just like in the first movie. But my main problem is how can Haley Mills, a blond, have a daughter who's a red head? If you loved the first Parent Trap, see the sequel, just so you can know what happens to Susan and Sharon once they're all grown up.

Favorite line: "All right, but he's really cute. For a minute I thought he was Ralph Machio."

Clean film, unoriginal and not particularly entertaining

[insightsatellite-sc · 4/10 · 29 August 2013]

Let me start by saying that I am a huge fan of the original Parent Trap movie. The story line of that film is charming and there is plenty of witty, humorous dialogue. This film, the second installment, lacks the wit and charm of the original film. The story line is lame, the dialogue falls flat, and the outcome is exactly what any viewer would predict. Additionally, there are repeated references by the two main child actresses to the opposite parent's hotness, great body, etc., which I found inappropriate and a little bizarre. Why not focus on their character, sense of humor, intelligence, or excellent parenting skills instead? Hayley Mills must have been desperate for a paycheck to agree to starring in this ridiculous sequel. Ugh.

Let's be honest, not much of a film!!

[Marynewcomb2013 · 2/10 · 20 July 2021]

I have always enjoyed the 1961 The Parent Trap & even the remake from 98, but this sequel falls flat!! It's pretty much the same premise as the first film with a little change to it but still the SAME!! Very disappointing & unoriginal as many have said! They should have went with the twins not talking & their children getting them talking again, that would have been the same premise as the first but more interesting than seeing tricks being played to get a man & woman together like the first one!!

CLASSIC 80s Disney Americana

[ThomPoole · 9/10 · 16 March 2022]

I recorded this film from the television in the 80s without knowing about the original at the time. I watched over and over and loved the life the girls had with trips to the mall, their 80s stereos and telephones in their bedroom and wanted the same thing.

I recently purchased the film on DVD (in a double feature with the original film) and relived the nostalgia, and was not disappointed.

Is it as good as the original? No Is it the best Disney film ever? No

But if you are a person of a certain age who grew up in the 80s with The Wonderful World of Disney or The Disney Club, this film won't fail to bring a wry smile to your face.

The dregs of Disney past

[blott2319-1 · 2/10 · 24 April 2020]

If you think Disney's recent run of "live-action" remakes are the worst thing they've done since Song of the South, then you haven't spent time exploring their history of TV movies. It wasn't always a "Wonderful World of Disney," sometimes it was crap like The Parent Trap II. Nowadays, this dumpster fire of a film is found lingering on the DVD for the original Parent Trap so they can give you the illusion that you are getting a great deal with a 2-movies-for-the-price-of-1 bargain. What they don't tell you is that no one in their right mind would watch this sequel more than once (unless they're an idiot like me.) The most glaring problem with this film is that the kids are extremely annoying. There's a style of acting that was common for young actors in the 1980s that is hard to describe, but if you've ever heard it, I'd be surprised if it didn't annoy you. It seemed even more prevalent in preteen girls, even though I don't recall this being the way actual girls talked back then. This movie is built on two of those girls hanging out with each other all the time, and it's made even worse because the girls are terrible actors, so they can't even do it well.

Of course, this wouldn't be a sequel if Hayley Mills didn't return to reprise her dual role as Susan and Sharon. I kind of hated how they worked both of these characters into the story, particularly because it seems the film has a delusional sense of how falling in love works. The idea that forming a romantic connection with one twin is the same as falling in love with the other is ludicrous, particularly when the two have completely different personalities. They pass it off as if this is an attempt to recreate the trick the girls played in the original film, but that was on two divorced people who have established chemistry and might have some unresolved feelings for one another. This time they are attempting to manufacture a relationship out of thin air merely because their parents happen to both be single and available. The Parent Trap II also has that cheap look you get from TV movies, particularly back in the 1980s. There's nothing cinematic about them, and the sets look like they were reused from an episode of Eight is Enough. It's not that The Parent Trap II is the worst thing ever made, it's just so lazy and poorly made that it deserves to be lost to the annals of time.

Let's Get Together: No No No

[Kamurai25 · 3/10 · 10 July 2020]

Bad watch, won't watch again, and can't recommend.

Hailey Mills is about the only good thing going on in this movie, and she's doing double work again, but this time as a spy against, but on behalf of her sister....it's quite literally a plot thought out by a 12 year old.

This still has the old "Walt Disney" and "Buena Vista" text on it, and Disney hasn't bothered to add it to Disney Plus yet, and I can't really blame them for not "re-mastering" (or whatever) this one.

The idea of trapping any two random people together into a relationship doesn't have the same appeal as re-kindling an old flame to re-unite a family, especially long lost twins.

While the first was charming, this is void of substance or real entertainment.

Fun movie

[coreyskrissyd · 6 April 2002]

This was one of my favorites as a kid! I wish it were on VHS! Great sequal! I haven't seen the following 2 sequals, but I doubt they could compare! Mills brings the characters alive once again, and the supporting cast is great! Wonderful family fun!!!

A dissimilar sequel that's wooden and wanting

[SimonJack · 4/10 · 26 November 2016]

"The Parent Trap II," might loosely be considered a sequel to the 1961 Walt Disney smash hit, "The Parent Trap." The story is different and the cast is mostly changed. The only thing that ties it to the original is Hayley Mills who now plays grown-up twins around their mid-30s.

Sharon Ferris is a single-parent mother raising her daughter, Nikki (played by Carrie Kei Heim). They live in the Tampa Bay area but Sharon plans to move to New York City for a new job. Nikki is about 10 years old and has a best friend, Mary Grand (played by Bridgette Andersen). Mary's dad, Bill (played by Tom Skerritt) is a single parent. The girls are distraught over the thought of being split up with Nikki's move, so they devise a plan to try to get their parents together and married.

Hayley's twin sister now comes into the picture. Nikki's Aunt Susan Carey lives in California. By stretching one's imagination to include the far- fetched or unbelievable, one will accept the plot in which Nikki convinces her Aunt Susan to help set up the match. All she has to do is fly from California to Florida (while her husband is off flying commercial jetliners), remain incognito from her own sister, and impersonate her sister for one or two encounters and dates with Bill. This, of course, is to make him think she is Sharon, Nikki's mom.

OK, so we viewers can accept that as necessary for such a wacky story in the first place. The film has some instances of good humor. The two young girls are the best part of the movie. But, in their conniving and plotting, we see some dishonesty and other character flaws that I don't think many parents want to encourage or condone in their children. However cute they may be.

But overall, this film isn't very good. The idea had possibility but the plot seems to have holes and the screenplay is poorly done. It lacks a thread of energy and continuity. It comes across as a bunch of small vignettes pieced together to make the story. And the acting of the adults is sub-par to a person. Again, it could be due to a weak script and/or poor direction. There are times when Skerritt's character has long pauses and doesn't seem to know what to say next. Mills, in both characters, seems hesitant at times and wooden at other times.

The story is a little interesting and had some possibilities – although far-fetched. The acting by the two young girls is good, and their scheming is OK (except for that character building aspect). But otherwise, this film doesn't cut it. If this is a typical example of Hayley Mills' later career and acting, I can see why her movie career tanked by the time she was 30. She was 40 years old when this TV film was made. I would imagine Tom Skerritt would just as soon forget that he made this film.

Good clean comedy!

[Danorgan · 21 October 2000]

Some pretty outrageous events took place in this movie! First, Nicki Ferris and Mary Grand meet and become friends. Nicki's mom, Sharon Ferris, announces they are moveing to New York, Nicki doesn't want to go, so she and Mary put their heads together and come up with some ideas that are out of this world! (Why couldn't I think of something like that?) She gets her Aunt Susan Cary involved and she actually agrees to help! No grown up, especially a married one, would agree to impersonate someone and date a man she doesn't know. This is just too funny!

Horrible sequel

[MovieAddict2016 · 22 August 2002]

Talk about a bad sequel. Don't see this film-then again you probably can't. It was a made for TV film, and I have only seen it aired late at night on the Disney channel since. Bad script...bad acting... bad movie... stay with the original. 1/5 stars--

JOHN ULMER

The twins are all grown up!

[carolinereynolds-11044 · 25 July 2017]

In this movie Haley Mills has passed the torch and her character's children are up to antics this go round! Fun movie! I love the location of the movie, set in Tampa. Lots of beautiful scenery! This was filmed in 1985 and the wardrobe reflects that! This can always be a great reference for mid-80's period clothing!

sentiment of parent trap

[29691614 · 5 December 2004]

Sentiment of Parent Trap Tell the truth I am not interested in this film in the first instance since I thought it was a comedy, I don¡¯t like comedy very much. But the film attracted me gradually when I aware the deep-seated meaning in the film¡the firmly reins of a family. A pair of clever twins, a kind father and a beautiful mother, what a perfect family it was. But then what a pity it was. The parents devoiced and the twins were separated. Lucky, god didn¡¯t forget this poor family. The twins met each other in a summer camp. There was a charm between these two sisters. From warring to friendly the girls came through a rough course. They decided to help their parents be together again. Two sisters made some chances for the parents even there was not easy. But they success because they are twins, they looked the same! People always confused. In fact, there was love still existed between there parents so when they met each other they went hot and cold. They want to know more about the other side but they didn¡¯t dare. The twins played such an important part to help them. Finally, the four persons rebuilt their sweet family. What attracted me is the firmly reins of the family. When I saw the sweet smiles on the twins¡¯ faces, I felt how luck they are. They could rebuild a sweet family but in the real¡life how many children live in a broken family? They just could live with their father or mother and step¡mother or step¡father. Who could take care of their feeling? They might think they were cast away. It is reported that most of the juvenile delinquency were made by the children whose parents were devoice. China arrested 69,780 juvenile delinquents in 2003, up 12.7 percent over 2002, according to the Supreme People's Court, accounting for 9.1 percent of the total criminal suspects arrested. Family, school and society form the environment where the minors live and the reason why youngsters tend to do illegal things is because there is something wrong with at least one of the three elements. In the most common risk factor is the demise of the family life and the increase in family violence. Between 1976 and 1992 the number of juveniles living in poverty grew 42% and this caused an increase in

crimes by juveniles. Many of these juvenile criminals have been abused

or neglected and they also grew up in a single-parent household. What kind of person the twins would be if they still live in a broken family? When the parents decided to devoiced whether they thought more about their children. The twins was so lucky that they lived with their sweet parents again, I could imagine that their happy life in the future.

It is so important to give a child a sweet family. Let us give more concern to those children. Try our best to built a happy life for them, they also could live a bright life as the twins in the parent trap.
