The dad

[Kathy]

Uh yeah!! somebody needed to punch him in the head!!

[Valerie]

Throughout the whole entire book i was mad at her dad. terra doesn't deserve a dad like him. She deserves a better parent. I hate him... and that's saying a lot.

[Mo]

I thought I was the only one who really hated the dad. Throughout book, I kept on waiting for him to have some kind of fatal heart attack . . . lol I especially hated all the off hand comments he would make about Terra's mom's weight :(

[george ☽]

yeah, he was a right old pain in the as... erm... butt. I would hate to have him as my dad. And yup, somebody definitely needed to punch him in the head!

I hate him to no end. I think he was beaten as a child. I have heard that happens a lot.

[Scarlett]

He was terribly selfish, I seriously wanted to punch him..
But he was soo realistic, since there are husbands/ fathers like that out in the world.

[Mo]

That's so sad how that kind of reality exists in an everyday society . . .:(

[Obi loves Chewy]

I agree with Trina it's very sad

[Alex]

I really hated the Dad too!!
And her poor mom, I think he destroyed her self-esteem so systematically that the woman was lost and even more so after she lost her sister.

I was so happy when she began to stand up to him, when they both did.

And I took it very personal because, not to brag but maybe just a little, my Dad is awesome and I couldn't imagine him ever saying those hurtful things. It was, like, a super high contrast for me.

[BookCrazy]

I hated the dad! I wanted to hit him and I had so many rude and mean things that terra or her mum could have said to him when he was horrible!!!! it infuriated me!

[Chrissie]

I hated the whole situation...

The dad being a jerk
The mom scared to stand up
Terra taking it

I seriously think China didn't have to be the turning point...

I really hate the dad. He's such a pain! He's selfish, mean and I really wanted him to step on a piece of lego!!!! (That really hurts by the way, I know what I'm talking about) When the mom stood up to the dad I stood up and danced! Serves him right! Hmph. I just really want there to be a sequel.
