See how (at 6:30) both of them start trying to distract away from something specific to something general. They aren't comfortable with it. 1st, they lie by saying he was "doing fantastic," and, then, they start being non-specific with the "be a family...know your kids" stuff. Then, she tells Larry that She loves him, and Donny says he kissed Larry. Cherry on top of the fake sundae is when she asks for them to play the Broke Back Mountain music. This is what would also be happening with this kid. No doubt, both of them would be telling him he's doing great. If he was doing poorly(likely,) and they were distracting/denying it, then that creates a lot of isolation. Would be better off to just admit he's not doing all that great, but say that they admire him for hanging in there. She's so fake. Do you really think she's able to keep talking about a negative thing for more than like 20 seconds?
