yes, that was the context in which i was viewing it, and it was obviously filmed from claire's perspective. i initially sympathised with jonathan until claire spoke, and in all honesty i'm sure there's more complex issues but i think at the core of it, what started it all, will be the issue she mentioned. it's clearly a very strange family dynamic to raise children in, particularly if one of the childrens minds doesn't work in the same way as franks.
