How difficult it is to be a woman TV writer--
https://www.cnn.com/2018/08/03/entertainment/tv-writer-moms-part-1/index.html
I'm glad I'm old and I had my children in Burma,though the other side of the coin was very bad and poor health care, maids from village who had never seen a flush toilet.
But my mother was with us the whole time, even when I went abroad twice to study.
I'd better say Thank you now, because I never said it when she was alive.
I just thought, if I had died, she'd have to look after my children anyway.
People are odd. She hated that I went out to work and always had a snide remark ready.
