Christopher's mother The letter Christopher's mother wrote to him shows she left Christopher is because she cannot bear the family. She is a natural person and everything she did is following her mind. Christopher's mom does not give herself many rules like Christopher. She just did anything she wants to do. When she found that she cannot bear Christopher's father and something that Christopher did, she did not stay in the family which she did not love it anymore and went away. She cares about Christopher. She felt worried for her son, but these are not important than a life she wants. She had ability to decide a choice and tried to solve all the problems that this choice give to her. She is a brave women. In her mind, free and happiness is what she actually needs. However, in other way, Christopher's mother is not a good mother. When some problems happened in her family and her relationships with others broke, she chose to escape. She did not care about her son and her husband's feelings and just left. She did not have courage to face and solve problems with her family. Christopher's mother is not a good person or bad person, because people's mind in hard and people cannot use good or bad to describe a human being. Christopher's mother is just a normal person. To face a problem in her life, she just made a choice, and her choice is also not right or wrong, good or bad. She is not a good mother, but she is not a good or bad person.
