Katie, I can't help but wonder to myself in the dark hours when my mind replays moments of your childhood...and the question I find myself pondering over and over and over and over is...
Where did I go wrong?
I just can't make peace with it and I know there was the unfortunate "bang trim" incident, but could that have lead to what you're now doing to your own "children"? I know we're all responsible for our own actions but I have to own a piece of this. My deepest and most sincere apologies to little Boo. I thought the worst thing that could happen to her was when you gave her a male name...I had no idea it would move to this level of abuse.
"It was generally agreed that a coffin-size studio on Avenue D was preferable to living in one of the boroughs. Moving from one Brooklyn or Staten Island neighborhood to another was fine, but unless you had children to think about, even the homeless saw it as a step down to leave Manhattan." -David Sedaris
