Person she’s gone.” When he heard that his heart dropped. I was that that little boy and that woman was my mother. I thought my life had hit a dead end, and I said to myself “if she’s dead I don’t want to be here either.” Dealing with my mother’s death was not easy, but there was nothing I could do about it. My life hasn’t always been easy. Losing a parent is something I never want anybody to experience.

As a child when my parents divorced I felt as if it was my fault. Maybe I made it hard for them or, I wasn’t a good girl, sometimes I even felt like I just wasn’t what they wanted especially since I kept being passed back and forth from parent to parent. This of course leads to both of the children searching for the love of a mother figure and father figure, and varying degrees of success in soothing their feelings of being unwanted. Once a child is born they form an attachment to the person raising them whether it’s a positive or negative attachment. In the book Maya felt abandoned but I feel like her and her brother handled the situation a lot better than most children.
In the beginning of the book, when Dave talks about when the family was once good, he calls his mom, “Mom”. He later on calls her “Mother” when she becomes abusive.

The lift of guilt allowed him to feel again, something he was not able to do for a very long time. After the truth is learned about Mary
Growing up without a father is hard. It’s hard whether you are black or white, a boy or a girl, rich or poor, and whether you never knew your father or if he left your family in the middle of the night. Sadly, I have first hand experience with this. When I was about six years old my father was taken away from my family and I by a case of Prostate Cancer that was left untreated until it was too late. I didn’t know my father that well since he didn’t live with us, but I’m sure the pain I felt was just as bad as any child that lost their father.
