Makes me wonder why the Archdeacon didn’t just raise Quasi. Also, I like his parents in the movie better than his parents in the book. Yes, they somewhat put his life in danger, but they also put their lives at death’s door so they could save him. The dad allowed the mom and their child to escape, and at least the mother tried to save him. I can assume their original plan was to seek sanctuary at Notre Dame, and Frollo got in the way. Plus, I think they knew they couldn’t just hand Quasi over to other people, even if it was a church. You saw how those prayers treated Quasi after he returned. I think deep down his parents knew that (as horrible as this is going to sound) they would probably be the only ones willing to raise and accept Quasi for who he is (Frollo, of course, does not count since he did not raise Quasi willingly, but out of guilt and force).

As for his book parents, well, f*** them.
