Stelly Richie thanks for the feedback, glad you love/hate it! for curious minds, I include below a link to the story that inspired this in recent news. In a more perfect world, the girl that killed her newborn out of extreme fear of the consequences would not fear them but would TAKE IT LIKE A WOMAN, whatever abuse was thrown at her, and then...her maternal instincts would kick in, wipe out all fear, and prompt her to fight back. in the end, the victim would not be her innocent newborn but the "righteous" ones who would punish her for this "deadly sin" she committed, who are in fact the ones to blame directly for it. this case is truly gut-wrenching; she had no one to turn to during her pregnancy, her own mother was in denial, and she obviously got no/poor sex ed to begin with; she couldn't get an abortion without parental consent but in this instance I wanted the baby to live because motherhood would straighten this troubled teen out as it would anyone. motherhood is a magical thing
