Free choice
I think that it is kind of odd that Jack can't see Old Nick, I mean I understand why his mother does not want him to see him but I think that it would be hard not being able to see your father at all. And Jack noticed something on his mothers neck, a mark he asked what it was but she didn't tell him. He thinks that Old Nick grabbed her by the neck it was turning purple so he is getting worried and wondered if Old Nick really did something bad. Jack likes when his mother has those days where shes gone, and she lays in bed all day because he gets to watch T.V. But then again he doesn't. And it is normal for a five year old to have an imagination but he thinks Dora is real and that she is his real friend. His imagination is a little different, like the Jeep being real but really it is just a toy. Everything on TV is fake but Jack thinks it is real. Some other things are like snow, Jack wants it to come inside because he has never been outside to experience what it is like. I also think another thing weird about Jack is that his mother still breast feeds him. I think five years old is just a little too old for him to be breast feeding. I do know a one and a half year old who still breast feeds but I feel that they should be drinking regular milk at this time. It is probably a comfort zone for Jack to still breastfeed.

I don't think that Mother even considers Old Nick Jack's father. As you read further, you'll get even more of the back story behind her reactions.
