One possible theme could be resilience. If the car is called 'little bastard' in a sort of endearing way, it might be because it kept going despite its problems.
Another theme might be the relationship between the owner and the car. Since it has this unique name, there must be a special bond, whether it's a love - hate relationship or just a connection based on all the experiences they've had together. For example, the owner might have spent countless hours fixing it up, and those hours became part of the story. And also, the theme of unexpectedness could be there. Just when you think the car is going to break down for good, it somehow manages to keep running and surprise you.
One possible theme could be motherhood and mobility. The car provides the mom with the ability to move around and take care of her family's needs.
Well, I'm not sure specifically what this 'little bastard car story' is without more context. It could be about a small, perhaps rascally or difficult car. Maybe it's a story of a car that always gives trouble but still has some charm to it.
Some possible themes could be adventure, friendship, or discovery.
One possible theme could be adventure. The little red car might be going on an exciting journey to new places.
One possible theme could be acceptance. The mother may need to accept her child's unique qualities. Another theme could be identity, as the so - called 'little sissy' might be figuring out their own identity in the face of society's expectations.
One possible theme could be growth. The little boy might grow and learn important life lessons through his experiences.
One possible theme could be discipline. If 'little' is a child - like figure, the spanking might represent how discipline is enforced in the story.
Family could be a theme. Maybe the story shows how her family interacts with her in relation to her feet, like when her parents buy her new shoes or when her siblings play games involving her feet. Another theme might be freedom. If the story focuses on her running or playing freely with her feet, it could represent the idea of freedom and childhood innocence. There could also be a theme of self - discovery, where through experiences with her feet, she learns more about herself.
One possible theme could be learning from mistakes. If it's about small accidents, the people involved might learn how to be more careful in the future.
Another theme could be isolation. If someone is deaf, they might already feel isolated in a world that is mostly designed for the hearing. And if there is also an element of 'the little death' which could imply a kind of emotional or psychological death, it might be about the extreme isolation one can feel in such a situation.
