John Merloch is Psychic

[Naughtydiaperbaby]

He accidentally got sent back to the 1840s as a baby because of a curse he laid on the Masters or Gods. The family he is staying with are refugees from his time. John was told by the powers that be that, "you must endure corporal punishment given by this family to unblock the portal back to to his time."  Most of the basic  emotions of people puzzle him. I am to the part in which he had gotten to this place.
