Donny's Folks




















Donny's parents are two happily married high school sweethearts.

Formerly flower children, their mentality is apparent in the way they choose to raise Donny. They frown upon modern medicine, and try to implement holistic healing and "positivity" instead.

They are still so blissfully in love with one another that they remain ignorant to goings on in their children's lives. Complaints and tantrums are simply dubbed as self-expression and Dad insists that everything can be solved with some hot cocoa and a good book. Mom is more prone to worry, but Dad will quickly reassure her that all is well.

Despite their naiveté, their intentions are good. Although Donny was abandoned on their doorstep as a baby, they raise him as if he were one of their own.
