    When it said “Why does she look like a fabric doll?” I think she looked like a fabric doll because maybe in her past she was used as a toy

    I remember when I was younger, this game was scary for me because of the gore, but now?

    The shadows are a perfect way to show childhood trauma.. when i saw the little girl who was victim of sexual abuse, the way the shadow was holding her, where he put his hands on her, that constant feeling of intrusion she feels, wanting to drown in her drawings to escape, forget… and harming herself to ease the pain when she can’t escape it.. its a familiar feeling, the game is spot on, and its always calming and reassuring to see people being affected by that, mark has a great following

So sad, the creators put so much thought into it though and so many small details were added that make you pity the children in this game even more if you notice them.

      The Reference of demonic or dark spirits haunting the people who are absolutely tortured by past things and the dark spirits telling them the negative things is how it feels.
      Maybe their isn't an explanation in the spiritual world we don't know yet, something of science we don't know yet.

      Unfortunately for me, my dad wouldn’t do anything or care either. Honestly, if someone wants to have children then they have to be 100% willing to be there for them no matter what. Children aren’t trophies that collect dust later once you stop caring about them. Don’t expect them to be a good functional human being just by feeding them, leaving them to their devices, and not spending any time with them.

    It’s really fascinating how the shadows mirror the children’s trauma and abusers, how they seem to have such a tight grasp on these kids. The game discusses such dark topics but retains a humorous tone because the character is a ten year old child. The worst part is there’s little we can actually do to help the children other than satisfy base desires

    The creatures are talking to the little kids. When they have the text it’s not you talking to the shadow or the shadow talking to you. It’s the children’s deepest thoughts and insecurities. The shadows are more like a metaphor for the children’s mental disorders and their biggest worries.

    I'm glad everyone is recognizing what happened to the girls. But as someone who has a little brother who was molested, I really wish more people would point out what happened to that little Blonde Boy. I'm thankful for situations like that being represented. Little girls aren't the only children that can be a victim to pedophiles and It's somewhat comforting to know that others sometimes acknowledge that. Felt like the whole world mostly ignores horrible things that can happen to little boys, too.

    @5vtte855 4 года назад +2837

    So I think what happened was that the “king” and the little girl were sexually abused as the shadow was saying sexual stuff that happened to the king and the little girl had hand prints on her chest, thighs, and her bed. The guy right next to frans room seems that he suffers from paranoia (as the paper says). Isabelle is a bit harder to know though. I think that she suffered from sleep paralysis, as if she looked like she has passed out and the monster is touching her as she sleeps (I’m not really sure though) and the guy next to Isabelle looked like his parents would mentally abuse him. They would say that they cared about him (things like im doing this because I love you etc.) while also not feeding him or making him do things to him that he may not want to. The guy with the mask in the cafe looks like he has personality disorder as he hides his face from the world and the shadow says “oh little boy, everyone is ashamed of you” I could be wrong about these btw

      I know that nobody is going to see this because I’m fucking *EONS* late, but that might be the reason why her parents were treating her so nicely at the beginning. ether to try and make her last days at home nice by getting her a cat and having her favorite aunt visit to hang out with her for a while. or as a last ditch effort to try and make her feel better and help with her mental state.
      It could also explain why the mental asylum seemed so willing to take a seemingly random little girl in just because she seemed a little cookey. if the asylum was already expecting her, and her visit was already pre-paid for, then it wouldn’t be much of a surprise that she snapped. and it probably wouldn’t be that big of a deal to the absolutely *✨wonderful✨* staff there if they already had the cash.

She was also neglected in a way, by the staff.

  • @burntbread12

    Support and respect for everybody in the the comments who understands and knows about the children's struggles in the hospital. 2 of them are decidedly victims of sexual abuse, one of them even has issues with self harm as a result probably. Her head thinks it's because she draws, she gets tied up in probably a straight jacket (maybe not, but that's my thoughts). One might have a personality disorder, another might've been mentally abused by parents, one more possible sleep paralysis (got these from a fellow commenter, will put their name in if I find the comment again), and then the boy next to Fran has severe paranoia.
    It's good to be able to understand these people are typically/usually victims instead of abusers. Mark seems to understand that and it's an amazing thing to be able to understand and empathize like that.
    Also, mind the grammer. Never been good with commas.

      It seems like a priest had molested one of those children. "Mommy was not there, daddy would not care" sounds like either the mother is dead or divorced and the father has custody, and maybe the father is emotionally absent for his kid and feels little to no empathy, which is why he didnt care when it happened.

    I rewatched this while recovering from surgery and realized that those shadows are the afflictions of the children. With Isabell for example (the girl who was passed out in the television room) when you take the pill and see the shadow she is being caressed by the shadow signaling that she is there for a similar reason as the girl with the crayons (who’s shadow watched over her showing that she was being preyed on by someone and we know she is dealing with trauma after sexual abuse) these shadows signify what is going on in the minds of these children.

    I think the worst part is that since this is taking place in the 1940's the mental patient care doesn't really have any practices that would work or would be considered safe by today's standards. Also many different things that are 'normal' were considered asylum worthy. For example, masturbation and "same-sex attraction" would get you institutionalized.

    at 9:14 I think it was, Mark was right. Most games that use a little kid as the protagonist usually portrays them as a more mature child, but this game actually shows Fran as a kid with a child's personality. It's rare you find games that use a kid's personality for a child rather than an oddly mature preteen.

    I know my comment is going to get lost in thousands but, this video series on marks channel of him playing Fran bow was one of the highlights of my childhood. I remember years after watching it the first time I would forget about it and have a glimpse of watching it and immediately try to remember what it was called I’ve watched this series probably 12 times over the course of 6-5 years. Last time I watched it it has probably been over a year and a half. It’s my daily 1-2 year update.
    I first watched it when I was 10 and now I’m 16. I used to live with my parents and siblings and now I live with my grandparents and have been for 4 years. It just reminds me so much of how much I enjoyed this insane little game and especially marks commentary and the way he goes about playing the game overall.
    I cannot thank him enough for making my overly dark childhood memories have a bright spot.
