Ok I'll buy into the fact that he made up his family but did he ever live in the house? He claims he had a single parent who had to work the double shift on Christmas Day to make extra money but how many waitresses live in a house that nice. So if he just picked a house, as some psychopaths tend to do, why was his name scratched in a tree outside.
Maybe they should have improvised a better explanation for that.
I'm not sure if I remember this right, but didn't he say his father left them? If that's the case, couldn't there have been divorce proceedings and she got the house. Couldn't the house have already been paid for? I don't think they really needed to explain it as there are many plausible reasons for him to have been raised in that house. It wasn't like it was a mansion or anything. It was a middle-class neighborhood and house.
Yes, I was thinking about that too...quite a plot hole, isnt????
Maybe the same friend that he took Doo-dah from lived there...or could be a house that he pass by everyday and wish to live there, so he scratched his name in the tree...
go figure...

It is verry possible for a single mother to actualy own a home people. geez You act like there is no way in the world his mother could own the house. My mother and father split when i was very young and she kept the house and i have a brother so for her it was pretty hard for her back then. It was much like his house allthough it didn;t have a upstairs but it was pretty nice and fairly big. granted in the movie she was a waitress that took extra hours but it could be done if they streched there money but it would be hard. Also back when he was young house's didn;t cost as much as they do know. P.s. anna_pevensie I love your singnature from the moive about a boy one of my fav movies.

I don't think he just picked the house at random. He spent a fortune on a taxi which he told exactly where to go to. Furthermore I think at that point he was just trying to burn that paper with his forgiveness things on it. I think it went from there and he made up things as he went along. I don't see why he couldn't have grown up in the house, with his name in the tree.
