I just want to say that I am reading these posts and almost wish the thread didn't exist. So much pain between us all... We wrote our experiences so matter of factly...
If I had read just 1 of these responses 4 years ago, I would have been horrified, maybe even unbelieving, I certainly would have thought this all was something that didn't happen to "normal" people and that there must be something terribly "wrong" with the parents/families and even that they shared some blame... And that certainly if the situations were nipped in the bud & handled properly it all could have been prevented ... HA! (That was my goal when I found this site, I was looking for the magic panacea)
Live and learn, love to my sisters-in-arms
I am so sorry we all felt this pain...
