The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time #1

I can imagine how hard it must be for Christopher's mother to take care of him. Christopher is an autistic  child who is very logical, and particular about colors, and foods. He also doesn't like to be touched or he will scream, so he can be a bit of a handful. Although he is this way, his mother should not have left when things got rough. On pg.196 and pg.197, Christopher's father is confronting his mother about only writing letters, while he was forced to take care of his autistic son as a single parent. I disagree with the father yelling at the mother, because she tried to see Christopher but when she came to the house, his father said she could never see Christopher again.
