Sad, With No Good Ending In Sight...

At first I thought this was just a way for Shia LaBeouf to say, "Look at me I had a crappy life!" but then it changed and I was sick for this little boy (Shia) the whole time. I wanted to reach out and grab him and hold him and tell him it's going to be ok, and I would NEVER let anyone hurt him, ever! I haven't heard anyone say, "Where the hell was his MOTHER?!" Maybe they said and I didn't catch it, but she is just as responsible as his despicable father. I can't understand why no one stepped in and stepped for this child? Even the Big Brother guy could have had him arrested and get the mother to come and get him?! Thousands of kids go through the same thing, and it's important for parents to see this and see how it affects their children, but it's just upsetting for most people watching it. I didn't enjoy any of it. This girl taking him out of this for a minute was sweet at first but crossed the line. He needed someone to protect him. To love him and give him kindness and joy and god this made me sad. I am sorry that this happened to him and all of us who didn't have a safe and loving father. The thing is they're our father and it's awful that we feel or that we have to keep them in our lives. As a rule, as the law. It really got to me in a bad way...obviously. The acting was great and it kept my interest but that's all I say about it. I'm sad now...
