3Poor Lisa's life is hell itself. Her mother left her when she was eight years old, and her father Jack started abusing her: throwing out all of her clothes and possessions and burning them, forcing her to live in a cupboard under the stairs, making her to eat dog food, and brainwashing her into believing that nobody cared about her. Eventually, on her eleventh birthday, Lisa loses the will to live, and tries to commit suicide, but is found by a neighbor and taken to the hospital, then to a new home with the Simpsons. But Jack isn't going to forgive her for putting him in jail...
