So, you think Margaret Hayes just...picked a random woman to list as her mother? Or someone else picked a random mother for her? Or?
or maybe there was some sort of more traditional "you're 44 but could theoretically pass this child off as your own when it's really scandalously your unmarried sister/daughter's"? Or "here, raise this orphaned neighbor/cousin/whoever, but you don't have to list her on kids you've birthed, but she'll consider you mom"?
