The insight of the real challenges of day to day life of homelessness, especially for those with addictions.

Although the story portrayed loving, patient parents I didn't like their selfishness of wanting to keep their daughter with them for her to live in those unfit conditions for a child, especially when their were loving grandparents willing to provide a clean, safe and loving environment. As a survivor of mental, physical and sexual child abuse that my mom was most definitely aware of, I'm baffled by her selfishness by choosing not to protect her children because she valued her material possessions more than the safety and well-being of kids!!!

AI is not the way to go

The story was simple but not bad. I listened because it was free. The AI narrator was so cringy that i almost stopped listening multiple times.

The storyline was heartbreaking

I just don’t care for Virtual Voice, but it’s something we have to live with.
