i did not say she was a lousy mother for leaving her son. i just don't understand it...or maybe i do.

even a father should try to stay with his child and not be called a "dedicated doctor" if he puts his career before his child. parenthood should be put off if a career is more important. she should be able to find a residency near her child.

i'm looking at this through the eyes of a parent who put her child's needs second to her own and regrets it.

the effect on the child of losing one parent is horrific. justify as you may but the long-term effect on the child will be devastating.
