     When one thinks of Hitler, one usually thinks of all the innocent people that he ordered to be slaughtered.  Over six million Jews were killed on his command. When one thinks about Hitler, one probably doesn’t think about his childhood. Hitler had a very rough and  harsh upbringing. His father was a drunk, and he moved a lot when he was a child. Not many people thought Hitler would amount to anything.  He was lonely.  He thought that all of the Jewish people had nice houses, food and slept in comfortable beds
at night.
     Hitler's father worked as a customs officer. He was married to Klara Polzl, which
happened to be his third wife and Hitler's mother.  By the time Hitler was five years old,  his family had moved several times before settling in the neighborhood of Linz in northern Austria. At the age of six, Hitler's father retired. His father was a drunk spending a lot of time at the taverns.  He was very unsympathetic.

     Hitler left Linz in 1907 to go to the empire's capital, Vienna.  He hoped to become
a student at the Academy of Fine Arts.   He was rejected.  Hitler couldn't be accepted to the Academy do his second love, architecture, because he didn't have a leaving school certificate.   After only three months in Vienna, Hitler's mother died.  The doctor said ,  " I have never seen a young man so crushed by anguish and filled with grief."
     After his mother died, Hitler went into a five-year period(1908-13) where life was miserable and lonely.  Even though he had an inheritance and an orphan's pension, he could not break into the society in which he believed and wanted to fit in.  If he mixed with anyone, it was at seedless taverns and beerhalls, not  artists or philosophers.
