    I found the ending both sad and cute. Sad because these poor children died horribly by the hands of their parents and had to accept the people they loved were horrible, but cute because of the way they all waves at Ron from their respective crime scenes, and sat all together in a surely happier (after)life.

    I had a theory (it’s pretty dark tho)
    “The birthday theory”
    What if ron died on his own birthday, remember on the first night when you are introduced to your mom and dad what if on that night was the fight that ended up with Ron’s parents divorce/ the mom leaving and resulting in Ron’s death, that’s when Mr red face first appears we see Mr red face (the dad) waving the doll around (probably referencing the dad choking Ron to death/ then walking to the closet and putting Ron’s body in the closet) remember when we see our death for a split second we can see Mr red face with the doll if this is true it would make the game much darker (further proving my case when Ron wakes up on the first day he first haunts his dad then goes over to help his mom (on the second day)/ sorry this is a little too much but it seems like a good theory!!

    I don't understand why the mother didn't just take the child immediately after demanding a divorce.

It was hard to sympathize with the mother because she had a hand in the abuse as well.

      good theory! Since his parents neglect them, I think they hardly ever go to the grocery store to get the child food, and he might have an eating disorder because it looked like there was beans in a bowl, which isn’t a very proper meal. It helps with iron but it’s not really a good meal to eat. But the mom note shows that the mom pretty truly cares about Ron. But… I think the doll didn’t actually make the food re-appear, I think the doll made it disappear. But in reality, I don’t really think Ron ate it. 0_0

    ok from all of the play throughs and explanations of this story, people seem to get wrong the time that the mom finds her son's dead body
    Basically, after the son's death, he (unknowingly) "haunts" each of his parents' room closet every night for 2 weeks
    The mom only comes home at night, so whenever she finds her son in her closet, she just thinks he's being weird
    The night that she finds her son's dead body is the 14th day after his death
    Basically the morning after she suggests she will "stay home instead of working for a day"
    And as Ron only haunts the rooms at night, his spirit was not active in the morning
    There was no "alternate reality"
    She did actually see his spirit for 14 days and thought it was the real Ron
    The loop stopped when Ron found the "spell" and threw it into the police station the evening after she found her son's dead body
    As far as she's aware, she still believed her son was alive for those 14 days, and that her ex-husband broke into the house to kill the son while he was sleeping on the 14th night

The thing is his mom doesn't know that he's dead. And since she only "comes home at night", she meets ron at his most active ghost state, making her believe that he was still alive for 14 days until she decided to lay off work and find out that ron's actually dead in the morning.

    I think when the food re-appear after Ron ate it, it isn't because the eating disorder he has or anything. In fact, it was NEVER been eaten because Ron is long dead and his mother thought that he was lazy eating so she wrote the letter. Little that she knows that her poor child could no longer eat and sitting inside the closet with no conciousness all by himself

    I got another thing to add. Another hint to ron being dead was when the doll led him to his parents through the closet using the radio. Yall know those videos with ghost hunters and their main source of communicating to ghosts is through radios? The frequencies and all that for the ghosts to talk to ppl or go to the other side. That also explains how from rons side all he sees is his dad shaking but cant understand why other than hes being punished but from the dads side hes able to see rons ghost.

    ACTUALLY the devs kinda did a poor job at explaining it BUT the mom was in fact able to see Ron’s ghost for 14 days. She was only home at night after work which is when his ghost was visible to her. Ron was going through his loop with the doll for those 14 and would tell his mom about each looped experience and his mom simply thought he was hallucinating. On the 14th night she promised Ron she would stay home from work and she actually did keep her promise. It’s just that since Ron’s ghost does not appear in the morning she was not able to see him lying in the husbands bed where she tucked him in the night before. This caused her to hurry over to ron’s room to look for him and that’s when she found the body. PLEASE UNDERSTAND THIS IS WHAT THR DEVS HAD IN MIND

    As someone who just left a domestic violence situation, it hurts my heart that people see the mom as a bad parent. My step father was an abuser to everyone in the house including her, it’s taking a toll on her mental health and physical health. She had no family to help her out, and she had no where to go since we were living in his sisters house, the man has tried to kill my mother before, and was terrified to leave in the safety of us (us being me and my younger siblings) she worked nights and days back to back, and still got accused of cheating, something I can back her up on she was never doing, but he had video evidence, voice notes & mail, even the affairs of the women telling her that my step dad was cheating on her, but there was nothing she could do, his family is great with lawyers n cops, even on our birthday she felt awful that she didn’t get us anything because she was tight on money and was trying to get groceries and save for a new house, something they were both supposed to do, in the meanwhile he got a ps5 for himself, piercings, tattoos, got out to clubs and bars. While my mom worked, one day he takes the kids on a walk telling him he is going to take them away, and make sure that our mom is never to be seen again and that her being in the way will stop, saying he wouldn’t care if her and I lived on the streets, that he would beat them if my younger siblings told her anything, that night we left, and to this day we still think about what would’ve happened to her if she stayed there, everyday my mother is scared for her life that one day she’ll run into him, and he’ll act out on his impulse now that he has nothing to lose. Unfortunately there’s more to this sad story for my mom as I am only 17 years old and she doesn’t want me to ruin my childhood since I had to grow up so fast for my siblings. I wish to tell you we have a happy ending, but everything is still going on behind the scenes. Watching the gameplay shattered my heart, and I was having trouble breathing. The ending itself makes me appreciate that we got out of there in time..😕 we are still trying to make money for a house, but we are somewhere much safer, I’ve been trying to open art commissions and work on my game so I can make money off it and help my mother.

      There are a lot of double standards, and I feel like moms get the worst end of the stick. Stay-at-home wives are oftentimes perceived as having the "easy job" with no regards to the social, educational, and financial sacrifices they have to make to make it work. A mom taking the kids to the park is doing what's expected as a parent. A dad taking his kids to the park is "babysitting" and "helping the wife".
      Working moms are worst off. For example:
      A working mom who just had a baby probably won't get that next promotion because now she has a family to care for.
      A working dad who just had a baby MUST get that next promotion because now he has a family to care for.

    I really like this game where it has a meaningful theme to the people in real life who gone through this kind of trauma.

    This is amazingly the worst time to watch a horror game at 23:01pm😍

    I’m guessing the reason that in the beginning it says story 1 is because maybe story 2,3,4 is going to be about the other kids. Hope that’s the case cause I’m curious on the other kids story

    I hate how people are blaming the mom. She had every right to leave as she was afraid of the dad hurting her. She was unable to bring Ron when she left due to her not wanting to scare him.

    This story is super dark, but at least the mom ended up being a good person.

    Damn. The storyline is actually great and unique. I really enjoyed the refreshing twist. Sad and horrible yet very emotional and touching. Wow. This storyline has a lot of potential for a movie or series or even a book.

    3:26 GOSH I AM SO SLOW!! I just realized. The dolls neck was loose because mr. Red face did that to it, and since mr. Red face is Bruce and the doll is obviously Ron, it’s showing how Ron died, since he is dead during the game but we just come to know that at the end
