I think Anthony's childhood in Ireland must have been a happy one, but his childhood in the United States was not very happy, so he would travel thousands of miles to find his mother, even if he knew that his mother abandoned him, he was still stubbornly buried in Ireland. It's strange why Philomena didn't tell her former good sister about Mary's situation in time, and she felt the same way because of the same fate. This is where I don't quite understand.
Philomena didn't feel that she fell in love with Anthony's father and repented, and she didn't regret having Anthony. What she repented was the guilt of not being able to raise Anthony in that social environment, that's all.
This nurse sees human nature very clearly and calmly.
