Book: Childless Mother
1970, pre-Choice America. The lonely only child of a high-ranking naval officer and a socially ambitious mother, Tracy Mayo was fourteen and pregnant. Exiled to a Home for Unwed Mothers, she was required to surrender her baby boy at birth and pretend it never happened. Twenty-two years later, her longing undiminished, Tracy set out to find him – and perhaps through her search, to reclaim her self. Are we moving back to a world where women have no agency? More than fifty years after one frightened, grief-stricken young mother was ordered to forget, Tracy’s story is even more important to remember.
