The father is very strict & controlling and isolates and makes the children do most all the upkeep and chores around the property. He makes them spend almost all their time underneath the floors of the house in a muggy maze of of dirt tunnels beneath their secluded farm far from any contact with society. Allowing them to only get out of the dark walls of their damp eeree world to attend school and knowing if they dare say a word to tip off anyone in the small community they stay completely distant from. always hoping to find a way to a normal life and a functional family.
