I was really suprised about the things that the mothers claimed about her son. I could not believe that someone could write something like that about their own child. Her evidences directed me to think that he was some sort of a criminal. Especially the fact that he lied all the time and he could do that with clear eyes. In addition he bought a shotgun and a knife, that is really creepy. And the thing that he lied about his days pay was weird. And the bloody shirt? What was that all about? Mother should have called the police for Chirst sake! Considering to these things mothers evidences were really convincing.

Mother gives information about her son in very negative way. She does not tell much good things about her son. She describes his darkest feelings and doings and ignores all the good things. Well, she does tell that he loved their cat, but many psychopaths love cats or thats what I have learned from all the movies I have seen.

Final paragraph of the narrator refers to that she’s scared and wants answers about her sons situation. It is also a cry for help. She really needs answers. She is really scared and is desperate of answers. She could also be mentally ill and is imagining all the things she has written.

I am questioning the narrators reliablity. This could be true because she is his mother and why would she tell so horrible lies about her son. But what if this is only cry out for attention? What if she is just exaggerateing all these things? I mean, come on! The text she has written refers that her son could be psyhcopath which have never ever got caught and he ran as covernor and got elected. If he had done some horrible stuff when he was young, someone would have found out before he got elected. So yes, I am questoining narrators reliability. She is just sick of attention, she craves it.
