Very touching movie that will definitely bring a tear to your eye. Sigourney Weaver gives a fantastic performance here. Some of it seemed a bit overdone. For example, the scene when Bobby meets with David's parents just didn't seem believable to me at all. It seemed totally overacted. The basic story was just so incredibly sad. It was supposed to be uplifting at the end, but I didn't take it that way. A bright,smart,caring and loving young man is dead and the whole thing could have been avoided in the first place. Regardless of your religious persuasion, you need to accept your children for who they are. You may not agree or like it, but they are your children and you have to be tolerant,respectful,loving and patient. My best advice would be put yourself in their position and think about how you would want to be treated. Parents often have a difficult time doing that.
