Most convert women that I know had difficult childhoods, usually including sexual exploitation. The idea of covering yourself up entirely and having a caretaker/guardian feels comforting to them. Is that true for your mom too?
No not at all. She did come from a broken home but both her parents love her and the split wasn't vicious. My bio father was allegedly abusive, which is why she left him. That's the one thing I have always asked her. Why stay in a religion that is just like an abusive partner?
