A Fairytale, Side B

     What if the old woman living in the forest wasn't really a witch? What if she were just a kind lady who wanted to help two children who had run away from home? If Hansel and Gretel were being abused, wouldn't the wisest action be to give them a safe place to stay for a while? Wouldn't it be wise under the circumstances to make sure no one saw them there? By what logic is it assumed the old woman roasted the children and ate them?
     Synchronicity at times creates a cause and effect relationship between two events which doesn't describe the truth of the situation, or the people involved. At the same time, curiosity and vigilance couldn't hurt.
