Body

Have you ever suspected — or fantasized — that your parents aren't what they seem? Ten-year-old Michael has. 

Maybe they're into eating human flesh, or maybe he just walked in on them having sex. Maybe they're committing murder to satiate their bellies, or maybe this is just 1950s California life. This kind of thinking is just normal kid stuff, right?
