Normal scenario would be happy parents. Proud of their baby girl. Smiling faces. But not in this case. The mother – holding her child. She is happy but the Father of the child, her husband, is dismayed. He is angry at his wife. Another girl! A fourth girl! And this time it is too late to try for a boy. His wife is already 40years old! There just is no hope of the family name being carried forward into the future. The other three girls ... so much older already. The eldest daughter is 18, the middle daughter is 11 and the other is 8 years old. He is filled with resentment. The little baby girl lying in her mother's arms can feel the resentment and cries loudly. The Father storms out of the hospital to go drown his sorrows.....It takes him almost a year before he acknowledges his daughter.....
