Don't let the negative comments get to you. Instead, let it feed your desire to continue. I've seen plenty of stories hating on the sisters before I started writing my own, and those type of people do it to almost any story that paints the sisters in a negative light. It's usually from the so-called Guest reviews, namely people who are too lazy to make an actual account or because they know it's easy to track them if they do. You can either remove their reviews or prevent guests from posting on your stories.

I've gotten a few detractors myself for putting Lincoln through situations that are worse than on the show, even one hater (which I quickly called him out because he never read past the first chapter of any of my work), but those detractors just encourage me to keep writing (mainly because they don't know what I have planned and keep assuming X will happen). But don't let the naysayers dictate how you write. Your NSL story is more realistic than the others in which Lincoln commits suicide that's for sure, because it's entirely possible for a kid to be kidnapped and murdered if left alone for too long.
