Uncle Axel and Mary had perform the role of parenthood to David more than his actual parents. Discuss. 1 PEE. I believe that Uncle Axel and Mary had perform the role of parenthood to David more than his very own parents because when Anne married Alan, fearing that Alan would reveal the telepath's power to the Inpector and they would be in danger. Uncle Axel killled Alan with an arrow. This is what Joseph Strorm would not do to help his son this can be seen as when Joseph Strorm knows that Sophie had six toes and his son know about it he beated David to know more about Sophie and just to note that just because he wanted to know more about Sophie, he beat David and if he were to know that actually his son were no different as Sophie, i believe he would report it to the Insepector as he was a god-fearing person. He would not have help his own son or do something like Uncle Axel did. After David had been punish by his father, David's mother perhaps was afraid of her husband did not came and comfort him, it was Mary who came and made little comforting noises as she dressed his back and it was also mary who tear a little as she help him to bed and fed him with some broth with a spoon. Mary was there for David when he was upset during emotional times hence, all in all, i agree with the statement. i am not ashamed- i am only beaten. Posted by Liting at 2:53 PM
