She wanted him to learn how to deal with problems independently, although I don't agree with the way she taught him.

It's sad and despairing; the mother is clearly overwhelmed because all the responsibility has fallen on her shoulders, but she cannot afford to suffer. Her children feel the pain of hunger and the absence of their father, and she knows she must fulfill both needs. I often say that it's very easy to abandon children when you know there's always a mother to bear the responsibilities. Sat, 17 Aug 2024 21:56:16 -0400
