* AbusiveParents: Mitch Masters, Kieran's and Keenan's father actually sold Kieran into slavery and nearly murdered Keenan. Also Mario Fulton who has been pimping out his daughter Diana since she was in elementary school. The Chambers are awful parents as well although not to Mitch's degree. Mrs. Chambers is obsessed with appearances and worries more about money than her granddaughter's kidnapping, fails to emotionally support her daughter in a difficult time. Cale Chambers tried to force his son to marry a woman he does not care for.


Added DiffLines:

* ParentsAsPeople: John Masters is an absentee parent but he is dealing with a lot of guilt over Keiran's childhood, Sophia's disappearance and the stress of keeping Mitch away. Keiran and Keenan do not make it easy either, with their propensity to get into trouble. Lake's Aunt Carissa has not noticed that her niece has been horribly bullied for a decade. Willow's mother Mrs. Waters is rather indifferent to her children particularly her daughter in favor to looking after her husband, but she was impregnated and abandoned. Likely feels grateful to Mr. Waters for accepting her and another man's child.


Added DiffLines:

* RichBitch: Melissa Chambers full stop. Also Rosalyn.
