The Ultimate Unanswerable Question

My mother hated all women
My grandmother told me that “education is never too heavy to carry around” and my mother's hated younger sister, Edith Newman, who had distinguished herself in the Second World War as the country's first woman munitions officer, encouraged me to go to university. The women my mother denigrated were the ones urging me towards independence. Now I see that, unlike her, they were my positive models.

To the warped ones out there who have deformed the minds of the children they should have never had, all their children have the one question that can never be answered: Why did you do that to me?
