Right now im reading chapter six in this dreadful book The child called it. David's mother is so brutal. She is treating him like a slave making, making him wash all the dishes everyday, telling him to sleep under the kitchen table with just newspapers to use as sheets, she even made this innocent boy take spoon fulls of amonia and colorox. ''You've made my life a living hell!' she sneered. `Now it's time I showed you what hell is like!' Gripping my arm, mother held it in the blue orange flame of the gas stove". David's only hope to survive is to dream, and the lie that his mothet will someday wake up a realize that she loves him. The way she tortures her abused son whom she refers to as it, is so inhumane.
