It is about Family story, Walls family who had ridicolous treatment towards their children (Jeanette, Brian, Lorin,Maureen). Rex and Rosemary let the kids learn by themselves i.e when Brian hit his head his parents just said that the scarce would be recovered by itself ๐Ÿ™ and when Jean was burn by the fire of the stove her parents like made it as little thing and that accident could make Jean became brave. But there were alot of uniqueness in Walls family that we couldn’t find in other family. They traveled and lived as nomad.
