ch. 5 David

I haven’t reached my 11th birthday yet but I knew what kind of punishment to expect. When I wouldn’t finish a chore in time I wouldn’t get any food. I would receive a slap in the face if I looked at my mother or one of her sons with out permission. School was out for the summer so I had no way to get any food and I haven’t had anything for three days. Mother grabbed a knife from the counter and yelled at me saying if you don’t finish in time I’m going to kill you.
