That boy is to be kept in the dark.
Quote2

Justine Abelho (née Daniels) is one of the main characters of Desperate Schoolboys. Justine spent a good portion of her life trying to keep her shady past buried, but when her beloved son Renato makes a new acquaintance in school that starts to shed some light on his childhood, Justine grows more and more concerned about her deadly secrets coming to the surface, and does her very best to make sure that Rena is never the wiser about the things she did and the people she hurt... even if it means she has to do even worse and hurt even more people to keep the darkness of her past from seeing the light.
