Was Holden Caulfield abused as a child and not by mr antolini but when he was a kid?
Not necessarily, but you can interpret this from the book. Holden talks about sex as degrading. And about Mr. Antolini... the man was drunk. Like really drunk. Some people think he's gay, and that's not entirely the point here, because he's basically patting Holden on the head. And Holden immediately freaks out. And he says stuff like that has happened to him about 20 times since he was a kid. 20 times? Maybe, maybe not. But the words "since I was a kid" imply that maybe something happened to him when he was a kid that wasn't... good. Also in the beginning he refers to his childhood as lousy, and doesn't talk about it. This theory isn't so much about the things Holden talks about as much as the things he doesn't talk about. And with Jane's step-dad, when she doesn't say anything to him and she cries, Holden is immediately like "Jane has he ever done anything to you?" And yeah we can assume for the sake of it that he did things to her. Also with Sunny he ends up not having sex with her; he just wants to talk, and that may have something to do with it. Child molestation can leave the people in depressions or similar problems. And Holden does end up in a psychoanalyzing institute (or whatever you call it). It's really up to you to decide, based on your opinions of different things that happened in the book. It's never mentioned in the book upfront, and that's not really the main message either. But it could give good background on why Holden is the way he is.

How is holden a misfit?
Holden is a misfit because he does not fit in with the world of children, but he is also not yet an adult. While he has yet to have sexual relations, Holden does not see himself in the same pure child-like light that he saw in his brother Allie. Because of this, Holden is stuck in between worlds and is therefore a misfit.

What does rye mean in Catcher in the Rye?
It's a very meaningful and beautiful title about childhood and innocence. Holden Caulfield, our protagonist, is attempting to grasp onto his childhood. He has a lot of trauma, feeling distant from his parents and older brother and being extremely sorrowful and heartbroken from the loss of his younger brother, Allie, who passed away from a disease. There is a poem that Holden feels connected to. In it, the Catcher is like a shepherd, protecting the innocent children running and playing around in a rye field. Holden mentions this to his younger sister, Phoebe, and he says that he wants to be the Catcher in the Rye. So, in short, he values childhood and innocence greatly. It's beautiful. I like to think that Holden has a good life. He most likely gets a career in child protective services because he feels so attached to his childhood and thinks it's the best phase of life. As a young teenager myself, it's a gorgeous book and meaning that will stick with me forever. Adulthood and the future, it's a little worrying. I just need to accept that. It's sad, in a way, but it's a part of life.
Was Whitney Houston Bipolar and was Whitney abused as a child?
It has never been reported by any reliable sources that she was bipolar. We truly do not know. The same with whether she was abused-- there have been tabloid speculations, but nothing reliable. On the other hand, there are some credible reports that she grew up in a dysfunctional family, and that certainly could have affected her later on; we also know she was very insecure even as a child and never had a positive self-image, even when she became rich and famous.
