I don't think I've ever seen a movie that I hated every second of until this. Pure crap.

At least the acting was good Tilda Swinton did a great job and her facial expression's, her overall mood was phenomenal. She was the only thing that kept me in to the rather unexciting and slow moving plot. What I didn't like about the movie is that they never developed how parenting would be responsible for that kid. It made it look like he was just the way he was. The movie didn't tell us at all how he got that way. And that's what I thought the movie was supposed to be about.

Is it possible he was inherently evil and I independent of the effects any parenting good/bad.

It looks like the mother character tried until
she was pushed to insanity, practically.

It's not ways the parents. Sometimes a kids personality is just that, no matter what you do.
