Jason

Jason wants someone to realize that he is a normal little boy locked inside a dysfunctional mind. His mother loves him, but overlooks his capabilities. His father considers him a burden to be hidden from view.

When his parents go on a trip to visit relatives, they leave him with a family they know from church because he causes too much upheaval on these visits, and none of the relatives want him to come. Kathy and Mark are a loving couple with a young son and Jason soon becomes a part of their family. When his parents die in a car accident, the courts must decide where to place him.

An uncle and aunt volunteer to take him, but their motives are questionable. It doesn’t take long for Jason to run away, back to the home where he feels safe and loved. With the help of a stray dog that lives on the farm, and the efforts of his foster family, he begins to develop in ways that his own mother had never thought possible.
