See Macaulay Culkin Revisit Traumatized ‘Home Alone’ Character

Every kid who’s seen Home Alone has daydreamed about being Kevin McCallister, imagining how much fun it would be to fend off two buffoonish burglars by rigging their parents’ house into a giant deathtrap. On the other hand, nobody likes to think about how traumatizing that kind of experience must have been for the cherubic eight-year-old boy who had to live with it; being abandoned by your family on Christmas is bad enough, but having to defend yourself from violent home invaders on top of everything else? That’s just a massive therapy bill waiting to happen.
