Discuss Bonestructure's answer to: Would you be patient with a socially inept person if their parents never allowed them to leave the house until age 18

I actually had a friend in high school that was in something like this situation, I was originally friends with her sister and went home with her one day. I met her sister, who was blind. The mother rarely let her out of the house. Totally overprotective. But I liked her a lot, so I visited often. What else was I going to do, you know. I was friends with both sisters and liked both of them quite a lot.
