What’s really hard for the boys is the plain evidence, by your own hand, that you have no true affection for them. There are billions of people in the world, and the universe holds no guarantee that any of them will hold any of us in esteem, except one’s own blood family. You’ve withdrawn even this small support from them. Do you have a good answer to the question why? What crime did your own flesh commit to deserve this punishment?
