The boys are still humans and should be treated as much. In fact the fact that the boys can all work and can live in a house for the most part by themselves shows that they are far from retarded. Mon, 09 Nov 2020 14:36:38 -0500 i agree https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2190092 https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2190092 the title really does not make sense when you watch the movie. The only reason I think that they named the film this is that maybe everyone in the neighborhood consider these boys to be next door neighbors. It is clear that everyone who lives around that area knows these guys so maybe they like them enough that they call them next door neighbors Tue, 10 Nov 2020 08:57:07 -0500 the author shows that his current state is very overwhelming and that he has a lot on his mind https://nowcomment.com/documents/238756?scroll_to=2176155 https://nowcomment.com/documents/238756?scroll_to=2176155 Fri, 30 Oct 2020 22:23:16 -0400
