On page 257, Paul's father says "We wanted to find a way to keep you from always hating your brother." Paul replies by saying "So you figured it would be better if I just hated myself?" Do you think his parents understood what their lie did to Paul? Would you have done what they did? What might the relationship have been like between Paul and Erik if Paul had always known the truth?

No. I don't think Paul's parents were aware of the damage they did to Paul. I believe they thought they were protecting both of their sons, and in the end..... they helped no one.
