Social Networks (lesson 2)

Hi guys,

today we continued studying the song about social networks.

You made hypotheses about why the mother hated her son. Here is what you said:

There's a contrast between the lively melody and the dark lyrics.

The mother doesn't love him anymore because... :

* he may have done stupid things.
* he may have acted stupidly.
* he may have killed someone.
* he may be useless.
* the mother may be a psychopath.
* she may be the meanest mother in the world.

-> L'hypothèse au passé: MAY + HAVE-p.passé

* he may have hurt his mother.
* she may have eaten poison because of him.
* he may have swum naked in the swimming-pool.
* she may have read him horrible stories when he was a baby.
