Letters

During the Challenge they have all received letters from home. Tony's letter is from his very distant father. Hes wants to be apart of Tony's life and hes hoping that Tony can forgive him for not being there when he was younger. With Tony's father back in his life he now has somewhere to stay, he doesn't have to deal with his mother and he doesn't have to live on the street or be homeless. Vanessa's letter is also from her dad. He writes that he is coming home permanently from Afghanistan and that he is going to be there for her because now her mom's bi-polar has gotten so out of hand that she not a suitable parent. Unlike Tony's and Vanessa's letter, Conner's letter is less supportive. Its from his mom, shes not to worried about him. Her only concerns are that he's getting behind on his school work and that he won't get in to a good college like his twin sister got into Stanford. Conner's not too surprised that nothing has change but he knows that he can't go back home. Unlike the other kids nothing changed at home for Conner nothing is going to be better, there is  no one there to support him in the healing process.
