What, as a parent, would you be willing to sacrifice so that one of your children could have a better life and climb out of the one you've known for too long? How would you feel if that child became unappreciative, a totally different person, ungrateful, and unwilling to consider that maybe there's some value to where origins are, even if some parts of it are unpleasant? How do you determine what's worth a sacrifice and what's not, even if the consequences are uncertain? The dialogue in this short story is especially sharp and emotive, adding to the overall plot.
