It can be nerve racking rethinking certain parts of the story for which I could have elaborated more. For instance, Betts. From this side of the finished product I find myself wondering what Betts’ motivations were to have a child out of wedlock when she obviously had so much going for herself.

She has an important and prosperous job, excellent friends, a condo worth half a million dollars and yet she has a daughter on her own, with ostensibly no immediate plans to include the child’s father in its life.

To me, it seems that she was a selfish participant… a greedy mother who wanted a mini me… if you will. So many women nowadays do. They may not have as much going on for themselves as Betts does but still they choose to have a baby on their own whether or not the father is on board or not.

The question I ask is whether or not it’s worth it in the end?
