Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The story highlights that Carla and Cody's parents were isolated and had unrealistic expectations of their children, leading them to physically and emotionally abuse them. Being low income or having a shy personality are not necessarily indicative of child abuse, and while lacking love for their children can be a characteristic of abusive parents, it is not mentioned specifically in this story.
