when reading page 172, it talks about Pappacchi and his relationship with ammu and mammachi. He was abusive to both of them and beat them both while Chacko was away at school. One particular event that the author describe is when pappacchi cuts up little ammus boots. to her those are precious and he takes them and in 10 mintues they are only scraps of what they use to be. He takes alot of things away from the family and hurts them, i can see a little bit more why pappacci broke up his own favorite rocking char like he cut up ammus favorite thing.

A family with so much pain. A family tortured by the outside and the inside worlds of their lives. Family or work? Love or grief? It burdens the family, and haunts their hearts.

A family that just can't be combined without a flaw. All they have in their mind is the mind of revenge. They do not love each other and no forgiveness as well. Since each of them can't forgive others mistakes, they have the mind they have to do the same to hurt the others as others have hurted one.
