In the bridge, maybe you could paint the picture more clearly that it was the fault/responsibility of both Mom and Dad. I came away from the bridge feeling like Mary had walked out and was the "bad guy" in this situation.</font>


Dad's fault was that he worked late too much [Linked Image]

Maybe also try substituting 'mommy' for 'Mary' - that might keep it more focussed on the perspective of the boy.

The story is not told from the boy's perspective; that's why I chose to use Mary instead of Mommy, except in the boy's quote.

Thanks for the read!
