1.Pete's mom was off-panel like the rest of the families. Family was important to how the characters developed, but I wanted them offstage, rarely heard, isolating the boys. 2. Bill's dad abandoned them 3. Grounded and sent away to college. 4. Decent, but parents were busy/away a lot.
in particular, where is Pete's mom? What was Bill's relationship with his father like? How did Josh's family treat him during the epilogue? What was Jerry's relationship with his mother like? (2)
