She Has A Right
She Has A Right by Charlene
This is the journey of a child born to an unwed woman in 1948 and the pain the unwed woman had to bear, the judgment and the name-calling. This is about the simple wisdom of my great grandfather Reinhart who was born three years after the civil war in 1868 and his gentle love, salvation, and lack of judgment. The journey continues through the Great Depression, acknowledging the community’s ability to share with each other whatever they had. In 1948 I came into the picture and this book chronicles the love of the people who came into my life, helped raise me, and the gifts and love given by them all. So many are in my wreath of love —some for a day, some for a few years, and some for life. But they all are with me in my heart every day. The journey I have taken was possible due to the people who have loved me and helped shape me—they taught me that I had value. I am forever grateful for the miracles and divine intervention in my life. SHE HAS A RIGHT to not be punished and to be free of pain. It takes two to make a baby, and one pays the price.

She Has a Right by Charlene Stratton is a memoir about some of life's disappointments and wonderful gifts. The short (around 70 pages) read begins with Char's childhood. Her mother gave her to her grandparents who raised her like their own child. Char did not know her father until she was a young woman. She then meets the love of her life, her husband Roger and learned the art of farming. Other rough patches she encountered include her struggle with cancer. Char has had an amazing life and is an inspiration for people who have had a rocky start. She believes like her title that she and so many others have a right to be treated kindly, to be respected, and to be loved. 5/5 Stars
