Charity walks a fine line between love and fear of her son Paris. It has been ten years since he killed her daughter and she is left questioning his chance at redemption and her ability to forgive. We peel back the layers to reveal a family history previously marked by intra-family violence as she embraces motherhood for a third time with a new baby boy. Multiple accounts allow for conflicting points of view, leaving the audience questioning where the ultimate truth and accountability lie.

Press Quotes
The documentary is fascinating to watch... The Family I Had makes no attempt to be political or force an issue down your throat. It simply presents the facts and feelings as they are. You decide right and wrong, good and evil, justice and forgiveness. This may not be your cup of tea, but it's worth a view just for the debate you'll have with yourself afterward.
—Alan Ng, Film Threat
