I'll say this much: If Vasquez was a mother, you wouldn't have known it by the way she utterly ignored Newt.  I'd sooner believe that Hicks was a father.

That's a good point, actually

Exactly. Hit the nail on the head right there.

The whole concept behind this book sounded bad as soon as I heard about it, because I could not put Vasquez and motherhood together, but I couldn't figure exactly why.

This is why.

She might just not be a great mother, or just doesn't care about other ppl's kids. Or she might be a mother but didn't want to be. I actually think these would be interesting to explore

Maybe she sees herself more in the father role.  ;)

This is a fantastic point, and nails on the head why the premise that she has kids feels "wrong".

I didn't think about it from that angle:

Than it should be that she just doesn't care about other kids. I feel like can't be uncommon

I could see Apone as a family man with kids.  He's practically a father figure to his whole team.

And he's a POC.  Go, someone write that book.
