None of the older three children are hers biologically, and even as a stepmother, she still treads on thin ice in the Iverson household. Back then, Christopher was still too young. And as you know, he was quite fragile back then, incapable of protecting his mother. Mrs. Iverson was also honest and unpretentious. This often led to the marginalization of the
