Is it just me or is Donna Reed the most disappointing character in the film. Mokey was really an amazingly SWEET kid who any parent would really be happy to have as a child (minus the fact of what he grew up to be in real life...) but his "mom" Donna Reed in the film is a complete...well...you know. She never truly gave him much of a chance until the end and said some ridiculous things about him- "no son of mine", threatening to murder him...I hated her in this movie. I really felt so sorry for the character- Mokey- with his mom having died- his dad trying to replace his mom and Mokey's own willingness to accept the "new mom"- and then of course- his dad working all the time and the new mom not giving Mokey much of a chance (for instance with their first day together and she is more concerned about putting up drapes them concerning herself with her child...)
