Long Answer
1. Georgie, who is likely in mental distress, first attacked Maureen Stanning because she had abused him in his childhood. He believes that Mrs. Boyle is responsible for his difficult childhood because she granted guardianship to the abusive Stannings. Mollie is held responsible for Georgie’s childhood because the children wrote a letter to her asking for help with the Stannings, but Mollie did not receive it until after Georgie’s brother had died. (Various acts)
2. Kathy determined early in life that her childhood would not hold her back from doing what she wanted to do. She is determined to leave her trauma in the past. Georgie, unable to let go of his past, decided to hunt down those who were responsible for his trauma. It is possible that Georgie’s reported mental instability may have had a hand in his decision to seek retribution.
