we need to talk about kevin wallpaper

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.
