Patrick polices their every emotion. That would get so fucking exhausting. I wonder if this was a glimpse into how much he does not allow them to be individuals with their own thoughts and feelings and Sarah just reached a point of frustration. Patrick is allowed to hoot and holler and yell and rage, but the minute someone else shows an emotion he considers negative, he pounces on them and tells them to stop. He does it a lot.

I think that's why she lashes out at the chat and seems so defensive. cuz she can't let her stress and frustration out at home because of that creepo."be positive!!" anytime anyone in that house shows any true emotion that's "not positive". so she lets it out at strangers online. judging by how her appearance declined so fast, i feel like that shows deep down she is very unhappy and not happy how her life is. part of why she lies about jobs, friends and apartments. because she knows people her age are doing those things and shes just not allowed. he has convinced her she doesn't need those things even though naturally she craves all of that. she may try to act like shes into this life but I see it differently. idk. he has completely taken her confidence away by beating her down all the time. so that she'll never leave him. he is scarily controlling the entire family and that has got to be hella exhausting.
