Precocious boy and poor family

Tools    





American, 80s-90s


A 12 years old guy lives with her single mom and younger brothers (maybe in California). He does small cons or thefts to sustain the family who lives in small house with a single floor. One day he's putting groceries on the shelves, when the worried but naive mother asks her where did he get the money, and he answers: "it's the same old story, mom. Don't ask questions and I won't tell lies".



no, it has a very different vibe



I don't think it's First Born...Teri Garr only had two sons in that film and the description mentioned multiple siblings. Same with Men Don't Leave...Jessica Lange only had two sons.



No, neither of those
