I am 100% sure its C

Answer 2

Answer:

A. The Weeping Woman is seen as an evil character whose punishment is justified.

Explanation:

In Ana Castillo's reinterpretation of La Llorona, the spirit is not seen as an evil character whose punishment is justified. We learn that La Llorona is traditionally believed to have been either an abandoned woman, or a cheating one, and that she drowned her children due to this situation, out of pain or in order to get away from her family. However, in the modern story, her motives are not as negative, and she is instead compared to the Aztec goddesses of maternal instincts.
