In a way- Mrs. Walker was sleeping with Uncle Frank as she thought her husband had died. He turns up alive, and walks in on them in bed together.

Offscreen, we see newborn Tommy handed to his mother, who just looks a bit tired and disheveled.

they call tommy “deaf, dumb, and blind” for most of the movie, a lot of people take advantage of/abuse him because of his disability, and the one sign language scene isn’t real sign language but a parody of it

Sort of. Tommy’s family is dead and everyone else abandoned him, but since his family were manipulative jerks, for the first time in his life he is free.
