I don't know how often Barb goes places. I don't think she's hoarded new stuff for a long time. She talks to Chris when she needs him to fetch her OJ. Barb rarely cared about what Chris did, so long as her needs were met. Chris is a pet to Barb, like the dogs. Or, well, pet/servant. I don't think she distinguishes Chris as being separate from her life. He's a part of her life. No, Chris notices Barb's abuse. It's not at all underhanded nor passive aggressive.Does Barb ever leave the house anymore? Does she hoard? Does she even talk to her blessed little baby boy anymore?
I sort of sense she is just in a quasi vegetative state now, not even caring if Chris leaves the house on his own.
I also question how much she thinks Chris is her sweet baby boy. I think she kind of treats him like a teddy bear/ puppy when she needs someone to love her. But Im sure part of her hates Chris, and blames him for the misery of her life. Im sure there is some underhanded/ passive-aggressive emotional abuse directed at Chris, that he is just too dense to notice.
