TR's mother is more in the wrong in her marriage, and vis a vis her
husband. But she's not the one who willfully abandoned her son 
and left him in an orphanage. Whatever happened between TR's
parents, and whoever is more to blame for the failure of the
marriage, that's really unrelated to TR, at least from his POV.
His mother died, so she couldn't prove or disprove her love, but
his father rejected him coldly and deliberately. That's no doubt
foremost in TR's mind when he's focusing his wrath on his father.
