Not bad. Depressing enough. :( The music volume was too high. I love strong music levels, but never with dialogue.

MY son is Christopher...long story..he is 20. I have not seen him in 7 years or talked w/ him in 4yrs...I miss him dearly. My ex-wife would sleep in while I worked and I was very afraid he would get hurt as a toddler, so this is from real life w/ some embellishments
