Betsy, please go enjoy "I, Robot". I think you'd like it. I'm not sure what all the bad reviews are about...but my guess is that people expected it to stick to the short story Asimov wrote by the same title.
If anything, I'd say it was a mix of a lot of different Asimov stories. I enjoyed it immensely...but I did spend a lot of neccessary time trying to figure out which story the movie was based on. My gut said it was based on Caves of Steel.
But no...it was based on the idea of them, not any one actual story!
Does that help?
Also, you have my prayers for you and your daughter.
