I think the whole thing about him being the reason for his mother's fall was a bit contrived, or at least not well done. He was supposedly "locked" in the closet. How could he have set up the truck and the doll on the stairs? Plus would a five year old be smart enough to set up such a scenario? "I'm going to put the doll on the stairs to distract mother so she won't see the truck." I don't think so.
shareHe put those things on the stairs after he was let out of the closet.
shareI'm not sure he planned to put those toys there to make her fall. To me, he just left out his toys get back at her.
shareYes...he coincidentally set toys that people can trip over at the worst spot to trip just to make her mad but not hurt her at all. If he had shot her would it be that he really just meant to throw a bullet at them really hard through a metal tube?
When you're 17 a cow can seem dangerous and forbidden...am I alone here?
