Okay, she obviously didn’t do the right thing. She should’ve tried to save her son. But…I think it’s important to recognize that she WAS a victim and her trauma heavily influenced her actions. She should’ve done better by him, but it’s obvious her actions weren’t done maliciously and she genuinely regrets them. Soooo personally I’m hoping that they can re-connect. Still, he has every right to decide to stay in contact with her or cut her off; I just hope whatever choice he makes is the one that brings him the most closure.
On a side note, loving the moral complexity of this story-line. It’s very realistic. I do think some of these comments are a bit too black and white, like one extreme or the other, but what can you do?
