My sister was a bit more defiant, but I was no angel, just a bit of a late bloomer
I hate that they treated her like that and that I didn't protect her
I guess my only excuse is that she treated me like she didn't like me

Though I wonder if the three boys had been allowed to grow up together if Eddy wouldn't have found enough love and comfort and reassurance in his relationships with his two brothers to not have come out okay.
The doc started out so happy and upbeat and ended so dark and depressing.

I feel a lot of it has to do with the family that raised him and his father admitted he was more of a strict disciplinarian. There was a lot of resentment going on with Eddy and perhaps a conditioning that he wasn't living up to expectations.
But yes, ultimately they really needed the support of each other.

Yes. He likely felt that, given the circumstances of his upbringing, he was the unlucky one of the three. And, tragically, he was right.

So you can tell who is who? Wow. I know I can't. All three were super cute boys. When you see the three of them together horsing around and smiling, it's hard not to fall in love with them. They seemed very endearing.
A friend recommended it to me. Very fascinating. I'm glad you got to see it.

IIRC Eddy is in the middle
Edit: Wrong, I just checked, Eddy is on the left

These 3 boys were all in the womb together, once birthed and if they had been separated straight away they may not have had the same connection for each other.
As it stood, as sentient babies they were all in each others presence for a while until individually adopted out. They had their own special baby bond and hence separation anxiety as the doco mentioned.

They really hurt those babies by doing that to them
I know a woman who's a triplet… she's a sweet lady and very emotional. She may have had a mental breakdown at some point due to tragedy

I saw this film. This was
horrific and barbaric!
It's like something the Nazis would do! The sick bastards who did this should be prosecuted
and punished severely!
MAGA! FAFO!

I just finished this. Very sad what happened with Eddy but also sad that it is kind of left pointing fingers at his father being too strict as part of the reason he ended up as he did. I'm not saying that his father didn't affect his mental health but it was very sad listening to his father speak with what felt like regret. The big bad here is the agency doing the experiment, they are the ones accountable for doing what they did to begin with.
I suppose the sisters are also kind of part of the experiment too. The research and planning was probably quite intricate to place each baby with each particular family. As I typed that it actually felt even ****tier for Eddy as the 'powers that be' were probably rubbing their hands in glee when they found a strict school teacher type as opposed to the fun loving, poorer dad.
