Secrets

I think of LA's attitude last Friday. She did not want to be recorded. She was very hesitant at first about being interviewed. It took about 30 minutes. She did not want to grant me access to her bosses. I asked if I could observe classes but she probably did not have any authority to let me do so. I think also of LD's general suspicious behaviour when I was at TQ's TC some weeks back. These women were perhaps once DWs themselves, and as such being suspicious of others, operating in the shadows are probably techniques of survival hard earned. I think of my dad's mom and how she coped with being at a disadvantage, being at the mercy of others, being at the mercy of men.
