For some reason, the panel where she was putting on her socks made my heart ache. Maybe because i already know what'll happen and it just looked super sad for me.
Can happen when any religion/cult is involved. I've previously read of a Buddhist family keeping their disabled girl tied up with a chain becomes they believed her disability was due to the sin of a past life. Can't find the source again. Religion, ignorance and stupidity is a bad combination.
Well... human is always like this shitty, you can see in many other thing in history. Witch hunting in name of "God", discrimination because of skin color, Heterochromia or twin is deemed as misfortune and many other.
