You see, my son, Kevin, has been called names and made fun of his whole life. When you’ve been made fun of as much, you find another place to live, and he’s found that place up here, in his mind. Kevin lives in a world of books, and words, and things I don’t even understand. I do know this

Gwen: You see, my son, Kevin, has been called names and made fun of his whole life. When you’ve been made fun of as much, you find another place to live, and he’s found that place up here, in his mind. Kevin lives in a world of books, and words, and things I don’t even understand. I do know this: Kevin would trade it all for a chance to be normal, to have a friend, and to do what other kids do. Max Casey has given that chance. Well, I’m not going to let that get taken away from my boy.
