Anna M answers “Did anyone else think that Noah was Lex's...”

Sonz76 asked this question about Girl A:

Did anyone else think that Noah was Lex's child? There were suggestions of sexual abuse, and Lex frequently mentioned scars, and that she can't have children. Mother's pregnancies were mentioned in some detail, but not Noah's. Lex cries when she reads about Noah in the paper but can't explain why. It's also mentioned that she can't remember a lot of what happened when she was 14\15. Anyone else, or just me?!

Anna M On balance, I don't think Noah was Lex's child. I agree with John E Mack's view that her ability to have children was lost when her father struck her …moreOn balance, I don't think Noah was Lex's child. I agree with John E Mack's view that her ability to have children was lost when her father struck her in the stomach. I think perhaps she was crying about Noah because it was pure relief and thankfulness that one of them got out unscathed when the rest were so very damaged.(less)
