Sigo pensando and Continúo pensando… am I misunderstanding? How is continúo an option?

"Su familia la quiere mucho y, para ser sinceros, ha hecho muchos sacrificios por sus hijos." quote from cloze exercise

I do not understand to whom 'para ser sinceros' refers to.  Does it refer to 'su familia' or Eva, the daughter who made the sacrifices? 

Why is 'sinceros' plural since it refers to a singular noun, either su familia or Eva?

This sentence doesn't make much sense to me.

I understand the need for para in para ser sinceros to mean in order to be sincere, but I am confused as to why sinceros is plural and to whom it refers.

Thank you.

 Using para (and not por) for purpose, goal or objective

I’m trying to unlearn or clarify some things about this verb. Could you comment on if these examples are correct or wrong and provide a short explanation? “A ti te gusta pollo?” “Me gusta pensar.” “Me gusta todo.” “Les gustan criticarme.” “A mi no me gustan ellos.” “Ellos no les gusta a mi.”

Hola,

¿Por qué se usa "la" aquí en esta frase, se refiere a doña Berta? ¿Por qué "la" en vez de "le"?

"Espere, doña Berta. Yo la ayudo con las bolsas."

¡Muchas gracias!

At the top of my page it says: Note that this is a Europe focused lesson. Your active focus is Latin America

Obviously Latin America covers a huge range of countries/dialects but generally speaking how would this differ in Latin America?

Thanks!

I have noticed in general that spanish speakers have different intonations at the end of sentences or part of sentences which confuse the listener and in dictations result in incorrect  punctuation. 

Can you explain to me when to use hace, when to use hay?

Thank u so much
