Long Answer
1. Mrs. Trepid, when she first meets the twins, has the desire to raise them as her own and dreams about caring for them. She is also not privy to Mr. Trepid’s schemes to steal money from the Moreys—possibly indicating that she would disapprove. (Various chapters)
2. Dallas and Florida’s tendency to act out may be due to the perception of those who are caring for them. For example, when the Trepids care for the twins, they are frequently punished for breaking small rules, such as waving at a new resident of the Boxton Creek Home. The Moreys are more flexible with their rules, understanding that the twins need time and compassion in order to overcome their pasts and trust adults again. The behavior of the twins improves with their growing relationship with the Moreys. It is likely that the twins will not continue to get into trouble if they have stability. (Various chapters)
