Honest heart wrenching story
I enjoyed reading your story. We can all relate to these experiences, maybe not the same but similar. We all deal with issues regarding our past parenting skills. Were we fair, were we mean, did we enable their behavior and can we allow them to learn from their mistakes on their own.?? And no matter how many years you are married, situations change and your relationship is a continuous work in progress. Thanks for sharing!

Local author, Plymouth MA, this book got on my radar when seeing she was speaking at the local library - that came and went but at least I did read the book......would recommend, especially to anyone who has survived the trials and tribulations of teen/adult children.
