Khalid's Mother (Rishworth Estate)

Overwhelmed by guilt, sorrow, and helplessness. Her pleas are a futile attempt to mitigate the harm done to her son, reflecting the broader powerlessness of marginalized families in the face of institutional force.

Overwhelmed by grief and guilt—she is torn between her duty to seek help for her son and her love for him, which makes her complicit in his sectioning. Her tears are those of a mother who feels powerless to protect her child from both his illness and the system.
