The demons uses the deterioration of the family to work their way into teenager’s lives. At the beginning of The Ishbane Conspiracy, this strategy is used with Diane and Jillian. Jillian and her mother have a superficial relationship, and they only communicate when needed. They never once have an indepth conversation, rather they turned against each other and did not care about each other's lives. Furthermore, nowadays it is normal for teenage daughters and mothers not to get along. The demons have convinced teenage girls that it is typical to not agree with their mothers. This belief is absurd because it is critical for girls to have a role model. Without an involved mother, girls do not have role model for faith, self esteem, and body image.
