A Child Called It

Last year I went to go see this movie called " Child Called It ". The movie was about this one little boy who was abused by his mother for many years. At the beggining his mom loved him and favored him but then he started being" bad "so his mom started abusing him. His mom would not feed him every day but like every three or four days and it would be his brothers leftover food from there cereal bowls or food from the trash. If he did not listen to his mom she would beat him or poison him. The little boy Dave was so scared to tell his teacher at school but they already knew. Everyday the boy had to walk into the nurses office so they could count his cuts and brusies. The nurse knew better than to call his mother because the last time she did she beat her son really bad and he came to school with a black eye and busted lip.  Daves mom trained him to make up an excuse every time people asked him what happened to him. One day when Dave arrived to school they pulled him aside and told him to come to the office with them, when he went there was a police officer waiting for him and asking a whole bunch of questians. Finially the boy started to cry and let everything out so the police told him that it was okay and took him away to a foster home so his mother would never find him again.
