A family of three is falling apart. Friends and family therapists offer words that should help, shared residence, mediation, children are resilient, and Karen listens while everything in her rebels: the child is hers. Still she asks whether her daughter is hers when she is at her father’s, and what she is in the weeks she is not a mother.
