Of course, starting to prepare to enter the university, without having gone through the classrooms of the basic and middle schools, represents a great effort because it is preparation, in the case of Tara it had to be given in secret, that is, while the rest of her family slept, she studied, succeeding in self-educating herself successfully since she could even enter the university in question, making this effort an extraordinary achievement, especially when we refer to a girl who had never seen a school belonging to any educational system private or public, to which their parents in their belief, professed absolute distrust for these systems.

I am not clear if to leave a legacy for all or simply to take back the link with his family, maybe it is depending on that both conditions are given, Tara Westover wrote a book he called Educate: A Mermoir, in which she describes her past in ignorance, how to change it, she analyzes in a way that goes beyond her evident professionalism, where even without naming it she poses a forceful but delicate forgiveness, showing an understanding that as a person with a high level of education is able to show.
