English 11 a child called it part 1 in a child called it, there is a very odd progression. the mother seems to go from a very loving, attentive person to an absolute monster. some of the stories seem almost unbelievable. what makes them even more unbelievable is that there is no apparent reason for the mother to transform in such a radical way. therefore, your assignment is: describe what you think could have happened. write a minimum two paragraphs of the events that led to the mother turning from a loving parent to a crazy psychopath. someone i graduate soon and this is one of my last assignments and really need with

Catherine Roerva Pelzer is the antagonist of A Child Called “It”. For years, she abuses her son, Dave Pelzer, for reasons that are never made clear: she hits him, burns his arm, forces him to eat feces and vomit, and starves him for days at a time. While Dave suggests that Mother is a heavy drinker and may suffer from depression, he doesn’t offer any theories about why she singles him out for abuse, or what motivates her to continue abusing him year after year. Sometimes, her cruel behavior seems sloppy and half-accidental—for example, when she drunkenly stabs Dave. But on other occasions, the memoir shows that Mother’s cruelty is premeditated and cunningly designed to make Dave suffer as greatly as possible. Even more bafflingly, Mother sometimes treats Dave with love and tenderness and then returns to abusing him—again, readers never understand why. The result is that, even by the end of the memoir, Mother embodies evil, which can be neither explained nor understood. She’s a force of pure malevolence, which Dave must escape at all costs.
