"It was your duty to discipline us by hitting us and getting mad at us when we are wrong. Because WE are your children. But then..."
She tilted her head to the side, "How are you going to show us, how you love us?"
They were taken a back by her question and not one of them was able to reply.
"Do you show it by hurting us because we told you the truth? Do you show it by hurting us because we were so hurt we had to tell you? Do you show it by abandoning us because life didn't go well for you? Do you show it by berating us because we didn't tell you a thing about our lives when all along you never asked us? Is that it?"
Elena and Denver were left with nothing to say as she asked them these questions.
"Is that how you show US, your children, the way YOU, our parents, love us? Are we suppose to just accept everything and say sorry because we lacked what you wanted us to have? To just say yes in everything you want us to do? Is that what WE, your children, should do?"
