Family's Decision to Leave One Behind

Testimony★★★

To escape communist Romania, my parents had to apply for an excursion with only mom and me going while leaving my sister behind. This was because the communists would not allow entire families to travel together as they feared escape. My parents knew if the secret police found out that we were planning to leave, it could be dangerous.

The point
