Throughout his life Kevin has been detached and difficult. Eva had problems with identifying as a mother and has trouble bonding with Kevin, which affects his behavior; as a baby he cries incessantly, and as a child he resists toilet training, rebuffs Eva's clumsy attempts at affection, and shows no interest in anything. While he is still small, Eva's frustration with his intractability drives her to throw Kevin against the wall, breaking his arm. They get back from the hospital with Kevin's arm in a cast, and when his father, Franklin (John C. Reilly), asks what happened Kevin says he fell off the changing table onto his toy truck, and that was how it broke. Later there is a scene where his mother is driving him around and he wants to go home but she has to go to the store, and he begins rubbing the scar on his arm menacingly, blackmailing her about telling Franklin about what really happened. When Eva tries to talk to her husband about her increasing concern about Kevin's problems, he dismisses her concerns and makes excuses for Kevin's behavior. Their second child, Celia, is lively and cheerful, but her birth does nothing to lessen the tension within the family.

We Need to Talk About Kevin DVD Cover
Kevin finally shows interest in something when Franklin gives him a bow and arrow set and teaches him archery; Kevin soon becomes an excellent marksman. When Celia's pet is killed and she is blinded in one eye by an incident with a caustic cleaning fluid, Eva is convinced Kevin is responsible, while Franklin insists these events were accidents and that their son is blameless. This pattern of suspicion on Eva's part and excuse on Franklin's ruins their marriage and intensifies Eva's fear of her son, as she sees growing evidence of Kevin's pleasure in hurting others. This eventually leads up to the massacre, where Kevin murders multiple students with his bow and arrow set, before locking himself in the gymnasium. It isn't until Eva arrives at the school from work, like the rest of the concerned adults, that Kevin walks out, turning himself over and revealing himself to be the killer, his mother being forced to witness. Eva finally arrives home, only to find the house empty and dark. To her horror, she discovers in the backyard the arrow-penetrated corpses of Franklin and Celia, whom Kevin murdered before his massacre at the school.
