Children hardly grow up in the eyes of their parents and this I believe was the reason his parents were always nigh Mike.
Mike sought for Independence, to learn a life of his own without his parents.
Mike unfortunately was met by a harsh and hostile environment in the hostel. Thankfully, Frank was a good friend.
Good script here
Yes, the outside world dealt with him, but was part of his life's journey. Thanks for stopping by
