When I Was Four, My Mother Left Me Alone in a Church—Twenty Years Later She Returned Crying, “We Need You”
Interesting wording.
She was also my niece.
More importantly, she was Hannah.
Children are not extensions of the adults who raise them.
I knew that better than most.
If children inherited moral responsibility from their parents, I would have deserved punishment for what my mother and father did.
Absurd.
Hannah did not owe me an apology for being born into the side of the family that stayed together.
