I respectfully disagree with that... she loved her son, but life happened. It's the fact that she sent him to live with her sister that's concerning and makes the escort theory believable. Why would she completely abandon him for 7y (??) if she simply remarried ?? The motherfucker either accepts her kids or he can go make sweet passionate love with himself if he don't likes them.
It's something shady... she said it herself that both her mother and sister constantly looked down on her and insulted her, why would she leave her son with a bitch who hates her ?? Makes no sense unless the bitch has some big boi husband or she herself can protect her kid if some sick fucks trynna hurt him, namsayin ??
Yeah, to redeem her character ttll must come up with a serious excuse otherwise her abandoning the MC makes no sense, and the premise looks ridiculous. If she says she did it for the money it'd make her an irresponsible mother who put her pride above her son's wellbeing, she should've let him stay with his dad till she had a stable financial income or ask for child support after the divorce. Leaving the kid in her sister's care just bcz she made a shitty call is ridiculous.
Escorting/prostitution is a risky "job", the woman never knows what kinda sick fuck asks for her services. She can also roll with wrong crowd, and human trafficking is a serious business, sadly. You think motherfuckers like that won't threaten her son if she don't wanna sell her booty for dough ??
Still makes her a horrible mother and a gold digger. She also abandoned Sheryl, so yeah, I still think it's ridiculous to abandon your son just to remarry. I know she was desperate to make money, but she could've visited him or called him and asked to meet up with him.
Nah, she abandoned her son and never contacted him again in 7 years IIRC, and then she pops up at his front door like nothing happened. She couldn't have had a daughter old enough so that the MC can F her unless she cheated on his dad and he divorced her after he found out about it, which would still make her a hoe.
