On page 4, it says,"Mother can beat me all she want, but i haven't let her take away my will to survive." This indicates that Dave has a strong spirit of determination. In page 4 from this part of this text, it states that mother beats Dave up, which means that mother is very brutal towards Dave.

Stated in "flushed with pride to find Mom holding me." "I never felt as safe and as warm as that moment in time,"]]> 2017-03-29 04:04:39 UTC https://padlet.com/hsupan1/bztptwtnc3yq/wish/163310705 https://padlet.com/hsupan1/bztptwtnc3yq/wish/163310731 David is smart
Evidence:
"I knew that my brother Ron would be coming home from his scouts meeting, and I knew Mother acted this bizarre when anyone else is at home.In order to survive, I had to buy time."and "to keep mother off balance, I began to ask whining questions. This infuriated her even more, and mother rained blows around my head and chest" and "finally i heard the door fly open. It was Ron"

Reasons: this shows that he his smart as he knows that by distracting the mother, although he gets beaten up, she would not notice that Ron would come back and see what she is doing to the writer.

  when she loses her belongings, she not only forced her child to find it for her.
  
  This can be seen in the following quotes. "Searches continued for months...only one singled out..."
  
  We can also tell that she was a very violent woman.
  This can be seen throught the following,"Forgot what i was looking for...I timidly asked...mother smacked me i the face. Blood gushed ...nose. Mother snatched a napkin from her table, tore a piece and rammed it up my nose."
  
  This shows that she was a very violent and, at times, sadistic woman in addition to being grossly unfair.]]> 2017-03-29 04:05:23 UTC https://padlet.com/hsupan1/bztptwtnc3yq/wish/163310786 https://padlet.com/hsupan1/bztptwtnc3yq/wish/163310791 Mother used to be responsible
Evidence:
''When it came to housekeeping, Mom was an absolute clean fiend. After feeding my two brothers, Ronald and Stan, and I, breakfast, she would dust, disinfect, scour and vacuum everything. no room in our house was left untouched.''

Evidence: "I dip my hands back into the scalding rise water. It's too late. She catches me with my hands out of the water."

Reason: Even though he knew the consequences of stopping work for a moment in the process to washing dishes, he was foolish enough to take his hands out of the rinse water for a few moments.

David Peter Character Trait No. 2: Sensible

Evidence: "Mother hits me in the face and I topple to the floor. I know better than to stand there and take the hit. I learned the hard way that she takes that as an act of defiance, which defines more hits or, worst of all no food."

Reason: He avoided the alternative to stand there and be defiant which means that he would receive no form of nourishment and more physical injuries inflicted on him. This also signifies that he isn't that gullible.]]> 2017-03-29 04:06:22 UTC https://padlet.com/hsupan1/bztptwtnc3yq/wish/163310876 https://padlet.com/hsupan1/bztptwtnc3yq/wish/163310906 This is evident in "Soon he closes his notepad and... I can feel my stomach coil.I want to go to the bathroom and throw up."
This shows that David was timid as he was easily intimidated by a police officer writing down information about him when he overheard the principal giving information about him, he also thought of the worse and thought he was going to jail for stealing food from his peers and never thought that his mother's abusive ways was the reason why the police officer came .]]> 2017-03-29 04:06:41 UTC https://padlet.com/hsupan1/bztptwtnc3yq/wish/163310906 https://padlet.com/hsupan1/bztptwtnc3yq/wish/163310908 Evidence:
"When she told the doctor about my fall from the top bunk bed, I could tell by the look she gave me that he knew my injury was no accident. Again, I was too afraid to speak up. At home, Mother made up an even more dramatic story for Father. In the new version, Mother included her efforts to catch me before I hit the floor. As I sat in Mother's lap, listening to her lie to Father, I knew my mom was sick."]]> 2017-03-29 04:06:41 UTC https://padlet.com/hsupan1/bztptwtnc3yq/wish/163310908 https://padlet.com/hsupan1/bztptwtnc3yq/wish/163310937 mom was fun
