Bad Parenting

Ron's father is a rather irritable and angry character. He drinks alcohol, which makes him even angrier and even scarier. He's also Mr. RedFace, which is a secret, in my opinion.

Ron's mother is a rather gloomy, but still kind woman. She goes to work, and usually stays there late, and is late coming home, which is why she clashes with her husband (Ron's father).

All this happens in 2002.
Ron is a little boy, 5 or 6 years old. He comes from a less-than-well-off family. His father drinks, fights with his mother, and hits her. It's not clear whether he hits Ron, but I think he does sometimes.
He's quite cute in appearance. He has black hair, a white shirt with black sleeves and red stripes, black pants, rosy cheeks, and beady blue eyes. Ron is a kind and sweet boy, well-behaved, but he still gets into trouble. He also has a doll that's an exact replica of Ron himself, and its name is also "Ron." It can talk, and it's magical. RedFace gave it to Ron for his birthday.
