The are a few untold stories in this play. One untold story is within the daughter. Laura is shy and deals with a lot of problems with herself. Dealing with her issues makes her a person who keeps to herself. With her being this way she doesn't attract the male callers or even talk to people. Amanda hates that she is this way because she wants what is best for Laura.
       This reminds me of kids in high school. Kids want to fit in but have a hard time coming out of their shell. They feel as though if they do people will judge them. Sometimes I feel as though kids with disabilities are scared to be judged because teenagers are cruel but everyone deserves the chance to be themselves and experience life without being scared.
