We Need To Talk About Kevin, A book published by Eva Khatchadourian, painting a picture of her supposed psychopathic son Kevin Khatchadourian. Very few considered that she may be an unreliable narrator, admitting fault only to absolve herself of blame or playing the martyr. Nobody knew what it was like for Kevin to grow up in a home he was not loved nor cherished. Below are the fragments of what made Kevin what he is.
Released from Prison Kevin had to move twice already because his identity was discovered and he was run out of town. Gone no contact with his mother he works in the IT department of an office building and keeps himself to himself, going by the name Robin Plaskett.
From an early age Kevin knew his mother did not love him. Her expectations were high, the biggest on being that one day he may do something that made her feel love for him. It was this high expectation that lead Kevin to remain mute, practicing in private and only ever speaking out loud in front of her when he could speak in full sentences. When he could he made up for year of silence however, this seemed to only upset his mother further when she slapped him for being too loud, From there on he only spoke when spoken to or when his father was around.
He was often afraid of showing interest in things, thinking that doing so may disappoint his mother further for not being interesting enough but the call of toys is too great for even the most resilient of children and when he received a squirt gun, Kevin couldn't help but show his intense interest in it, they had been mid way through moving at the time and he feared it being thrown away or lost so he kept a tight hold on it, likely showing too much interest in it for such a cheap and simple toy. he had fun chasing his father with it. In this new house his mother had set up a room just for her, the walls plastered with her various travel maps. when shown Kevin thought it was stupid. Not the maps themselves but what they represented. The desire to get away from him. But he could see how special they were to his mother. He wanted to be special to her. In an act of what could only be described as childish imagination Kevin filled his gun with paint and squirted the maps, wishing to combine his special thing with hers. It did not have its desired effect and his mother screamed and crushed his gun in front of him, stamping on it several time until it shattered and the pain ruined her shoes. Kevin knew form that moment on that to love was to have vulnerable weakness. Something he never wanted to expose again
When Kevin was born he cried a lot, most babies do but his mother took it as a personal attack, constantly stressed Kevin picked up on this and only cried more. She had no love for Kevin, for her he was a screaming tumour she would be better off without, and she made sure to tell him so even before he could understand words. At one and a half Kevin was still mute (expanded on in the Mute section) but understood words. Understood when his mother called him a little shit, that he had ruined her life and that she would rather die than hear him screech. Understanding this Kevin stopped crying, never to cry again in front of her. He thought the silence may win some favour but instead it made his mother uneasy.When Kevin started talking he noticed how visibly disturbed and uncomfortable Eva became when he called her mum. He called her Mummer (And later Mumsy) in an attempt to make her more comfortable. instead she took it as another attack that Kevin didn't see her as his mother.
Kevin suffers form Deipnophobia, a fear of eating in front of people, even as a child he would not eat a bite of his food if anyone was in the room. This was triggered by two things, the first not feeling comfortable enough to eat in the presence of his primary caregiver (his mother) but also a reflection of her relationship with food and disgust at overweight people that she was never shy about voicing. this lead to Kevin being underweight even into adulthood having never fixed that relationship with food
Total independence is something that triggered all at once for Kevin. Still in diapers in kindergarten because he did not have a secure place to develop normally, Kevin had messed himself immediately after being changed which enraged Eva. In her anger she thew him down and broke his arm. He did not cry. He felt he deserved in and knew his mother thought so too. To protect his mother he did not tell the doctors or his father what happened, only that he had fell. From that moment on Kevin was completely self reliant. He started using the bathroom and refused any help with anything including washing and dressing himself.
Celia was Kevin's younger sister, born when he was ten Kevin envied Celia for the amount their mother loved her. She was the antithesis of Kevin and her birth rendered him invisible. It was this resentment that lead to a defining moment for Kevin. He had been on his computer, his parent at work when Celia came into his room complaining of something in her eye. He didn't like playing with her, resenting her and had harshly replied "Go clean it out." without thinking. He couldn't have predicted that she would get the drain unblocker that had been left on the kitchen side. Hearing the scream, Kevin bolted down the stairs and tried to help her wash it out but it was too late. He called the hospital and Celia would end up losing her eye to be replaced with a glass one.It was that point when Kevin cemented himself as a irredeemable monster.
After her death Kevin kept her glass eye, a token of the only thing left of his mother love and a symbol of how awful he was.

From a young age Kevin had a hard time socialising having very few friends in school. He had closed himself off emotionally as well as been teased for his late development when it came to using the bathroom instead of a diaper. It made it hard for him to establish meaningful connections and by the time he was in high school Kevin has just one friend Leonard. Leonard is seen by Eva as a weak minded plaything to Kevin however Kevin regarded him differently. Leonard made Kevin feel human and like he just might be worth interacting with.
