[QUOTE="Elsi, post: 743429, member: 23349"] Around the yard. She has other birds and animals that she has released at the park. The crow follows her both places. I call her Snow White. :D Which is funny to both of us because otherwise she is pretty much the anti Disney princess. I hear you. My family is kind and treats them well when they are present. If they didn’t I would feel very differently. It’s more that I sense they aren’t mised as much as E would be when they are absent, and I feel like it’s eaier for my family to dismiss their problems with ‘oh, well it’s not like they are REALLY one of ours.” It’s not something they say to me directly, and maybe it’s all in my head. I just feel like they would be more concerned, involved and anguished about the situation if it were one of their ‘real’ grandkids. But then again, ignore and dismiss is standard for my family. This is the same family who ignored my childhood difficulties. I’ve learned to accept my family with their imperfections, and they’ve learned to accept me for who I am, and for the most part we make it work. Copa, that’s so sad. I bond just as much with animals as I do with people - more than with most people. It would distress me very much to have that kind of outcome with a creature I loved. [/QUOTE]
