    When I was 12, I didn't even understand disabilities the way Dakota understands at the age of 6. Her level of maturity at such a young age is crazy.

    Because I have a mother who has the mental capacity of a twelve year old and my older brother has the mentality of a six year and my dad was never around I'm really empathetic towards Lucy, that feeling of having to be the grown up, and not wanting to learn things that mum couldn't.

    Yes, unfortunately, a lot of people did not realise how realistic it was, because if they had, more people would have realised how corrupt CPS is and demanded that the system be overhauled.
