This was great, in that stomping-on-my-gut way. The description the children is spare, but no less unflinching. Kudos.
This fic hits me especially hard because there's been a recent spat of child-abuse cases in my area. Different from this, but just as shattering. The fortunate ones are indeed the ones who die.
