i feel guilty and i am not even german. ALL of my relatives were FIGHTING the germans - even storming normandy.
i can't imagine the pain... the perpetrators, the victims... generation after generation... the pain lingers. -

The fact that this tears at her, leaves her with guilt suggests to me that she is an honorable woman. She was not brought up in her father's house and does not have that history to carry around. Her decency has come from her adopted parents who must have taught her properly. We are a product of our experiences. I don't believe that she inherited evil.

Guilt is inherent in her lineage? With that philosophy, whose lineage ISN'T guilty? Go back far enough and every lineage is guilty of some atrocity.

Personally, I don't think this woman has thing one to be ashamed of, at least concerning the actions of her father. We are responsible for OUR actions, not the actions of those who came before us.
