I got the message, but it wasn't as powerful as it could have been if there had been a better performance out of the kids.

I don't understand why and others' objections are just hastily disregarded as unqualified complaining. We can enjoy the show and critique it at the same time.
And I agreed they were not great, but they are kids. I thought as kid actors, they were as good as required. I guess the point about complaining is the fact that the episode was strong, gut wrenching and something we really haven't seen on TV before and one of the first posts I read is how dreadful the acting was by the girls. Just seems like unnecessary complaining. I again, thought they were fine for who they were and what their role was.
