There Was an Old Woman She Had So Many Children She Didn't Know What to Do
- Rosa Vargas is a single mother with a whole lot of kids. They're completely uncontrollable.
- The kids are "without respect for all things living, including themselves" (13.3).
- The neighbors try to watch out for the kids, but grow tired of worrying about them and give up.
- No one pays attention with Efren chips his tooth, Refugia gets her head stuck in the gate, or Angel Vargas falls from Mr. Benny's roof.
