The book is written in the perspective of Christopher and since he's autistic, he doesn't understand what people are saying. He also doesn't get emotions well, so he would misinterpret some of peoples actions. He believed that his father didn't tell him about his mother because it was for himself, but he actually did it for both of the them. He didn't Christopher to think it was all his fault that his mother left.
Also, Christopher thinks that his dad is very dangerous after killing Wellington, but that was just an emotion. He got mad and thought a productive way to channel his anger was killing a dog but clearly it wasn't. Christopher had known this feeling when he hit the police officer because he got angry that he touched his shoulder.
