"I don't like baths." He didn't like the idea of having a bath, he had never really had one and showers were awful. His last family tried the first night and gave up, hence the state he was in. Sure, he was difficult to deal with but nothing was worth trying twice for with him. He wasn't an instant angel, he wasn't worth keeping.

"I get big new teeth soon." Or, at least, he heard people did when they were big enough. He had a year before he started school so he hoped he had new teeth by then. Then they would hurt less and he wouldn't have to brush them. Or so he assumed.
