Your comment has touched my heart @wildlocusthoney My childhood was particularly painful too and I also haven’t forgotten how it felt when those days were my reality. Literally the biggest point I have come to as far as my dark days was to shed light on the fact that I am now a mom myself and I have a chance at a deep connection with my kids if I choose. Deciding not to perpetuate history is huge, materializing it is even bigger.

I understand the scenario of bringing them in when the weather is bad, but that’s not so much a battle against his free-will as it is you looking out for your child. Yes let’s always keep growing! <3
