In his foreword to the book, author Andrew Solomon wrote, "The ultimate message of this book is terrifying: you may not know your own children, and worse yet, your children may be unknowable to you. The stranger you fear may be your own son or daughter." Sue Klebold donated all of her profits from the book to mental health charities.
