Yes Mother

Imagine small children never having parental supervision, never having normal food to eat, and being beaten and abused by their own mother for no good reason. Yes, Mother is how author Margaret Gomez and her siblings had to answer their mother. Eating leftover, discarded food no one wanted was a routine for them. Being cold from never having a coat or sweater to wear on those long walks to school, saving a sibling from near death, and struggling to stay alive, just to wake up and start all over again, was the children's day in, day out lifestyle. This mother disliked her own daughters, and this author has allowed us to see and learn what sometimes hides underneath a polite, pat response?Yes, Mother.
