Spoil me for Jessica Jones

So, we've watched two episodes of the show. I really, really like it even though it is much darker than I expected. However, in episode 2 Kilgrave sends the two kids into the closet, and it really, really upset me. I get super anxious about child harm; can't read or hear about it from the news; can't take it in books and TV; it starts me on an anxiety spiral where I can't stop thinking about it. We watched that episode on Monday, and I keep thinking about it.

So I need to be spoiled for this particular plot point ONLY, please. Do the kids die? Are they mentioned or seen again? If bad things happen to them, which part of which episode do I need to avoid?

i dont think they're mentioned again. Certainly no more on screen badness happens to them. (Lots of on screen badness to adults though.) Also, later in the series there is some reference to (non sexual) child abuse, and some is shown on screen. It is stopped, hard, though, within the same scene.

You're right. We never see or hear from them again. I choose to assume that they're fine. It's entirely possible that Kilgrave wouldn't kill a child, though he couldn't care less about adults.
