Please help me A Child Called It by Dave Pelzer
Chapter 1-4

Why do you think Dave’s mom acts the way that she does? What do you think is the worst thing she’s done so far?

Why do you think Dave’s Dad doesn’t step in and stop Dave’s mom? Why don’t his brothers ever really say anything?

What message or ideas do you think Dave Pelzer is trying to express through this book? Why do you think that?

Why start the story with his rescue and then go back and talk about all of the horrible things he went through? Why begin at the end of the story?

Why psychological effects do you think abuse like this has? How does it change the way a person thinks or sees the world? Why do you think that?
