There are many similarities between the Couch family and the Hadley’s on the way they raised their children. However, due to the several differences, the outcome of the children’s behaviour had led to grievous events. Firstly, the similarity between the Couch family and the Hadley’s was that they had overindulged their children, which isolated them from their parents. The Couch family had given Ethan anything he granted, including his own place of residence and a pickup at the age of 13. Comparably, the Hadley’s had given their children exposure to advanced technology (nursery), allowing them to see what they desired.
