Can you understand why Father did what he did? And what Mother did what she did?

This question calls for your opinion, there is no right or wrong answer. Put yourself in Christopher's father's shoes.... would you be able to explain Christopher's mother's leaving, or would you take the easy way out and lie, make it a mute issue. The same would go for Christopher's mother.... would you have left your child behind? Was her life easier without Christopher, or did she make her decision based upon the fact that leaving with him would have been more difficult.

thank u:))
