Added DiffLines:

* HiddenDepths: He's intelligent and creative, learning complicated magic tricks and how to use tools and build various contraptions despite his young age. When not behaving strangely, he is also protective of his mother and expresses a strong love for her. [[spoiler: In fact, it is this hidden love for his mother that is able to free her from the poisonous influence of the Babadook after she has completely lost her sanity.]]
* JerkassWoobie: His outbursts and screaming early in the film make him seem quite unlikeable and unhinged at times. Given he's so young and has grown up in such traumatic circumstances, it's perhaps not surprising. [[spoiler: Later in the film it becomes clear he is actually very loving towards his mother and much more of a happy child when Amelia is able to manage her grief and talk about his father around him, making him much more sympathetic.]]


Added DiffLines:

* PetMonstrosity: [[spoiler: Essentially becomes a twisted version of this. Amelia even begins feeding it daily and soothing it when she visits.]]
