However, Prosser"tms actions are not only the embodiment of what happens when a man reaches his limit, but also what happens when a man"tms spirit is perverted by the cruel, harsh actions of society. Fundamentally, to the reader, Prosser is the "child", as stated in the title; an innocent, untainted, kindred soul, that is incapable of doing any harm to any other being.

Therefore, Prosser"tms suppressive treatment shows the other, tiger side of his identity in the form of a homicidal rampage. However, the other half of Prosser"tms identity is the tiger.
