I’m sorry Sam Kimberle, you had to endure that as a child. That must’ve been terrifying. I am glad you have pushed through despite it all. I am now worried about sending my son to school. It seems my parents will probably buy their way into any visits with my son without my permission. I feel terrible at robbing him of social experiences. I’m conflicted and I will figure it out. The last I want is for him to be the “golden child” for my parents — that will just be terrible. This is why I try to shield him from. Well, we’ll push through this one.

Thank you for your warm message. You give me hope and light.
