Skipper Can no Longer Play...
Oscar J, is a young boy devoted to his pet dog Skipper, who
he has since developed a life long relationship with. Through
the course of dog years, Skipper begins to age, becomes ill,
and dies. Never having experienced a death of any kind,
and its associated grief Oscar J is distraught. However, with
the support and comfort provided by mum, Oscar is aware
that the pain and sadness he presently feels will eventually
pass, and although Skipper will no longer be present for fun
and games like every other previous day, his memory can
live in Oscar's heart and mind forever.
Daddy Can no Longer Stay...
A little older from his days with Skipper, Oscar J is being
subjected to constant rows, harsh words, slammed doors
and silences between his parents. Over the course of weeks
he believes that he could be the cause of their distress, and
becomes tearful and aggressive as a result of the same. When
his behavioural failings begin Oscar's parents are notified by
the school, and it is at this point Mr & Mrs J realise the
affect that their potential 'break up' is having on their son.
Embarrassed and in shock by their thoughtless actions, they
both sit and apologise to their son, assuring that through no
fault of his own such is being experienced by their family.
Although these are changes in life that some may experience,
should any separation or divorce come to pass between his
dad and mum, the one constant that they can be sure will
remain is the love that they have for their son.
