[quote=Anonymous]I'm so sorry this happened to you. The holidays bring up a lot of stuff from our past. For a long time, I didn't want to have children because was the only way I knew to stop the cycle of abuse. After I had my kids, I was like you, very conscience to parent differently (better). I also realized as I was parenting my kids, I was also parenting myself and healing my inner child. I forgave my own parents through the journey of being a parent. And more importantly I forgave myself. I thought I should have protected my siblings because I was the oldest. Well I was only 5. Seeing my own kids puts my childhood in perspective. It's been an amazing journey hrowing ip and reclaiming my childhood alongside my kids. Wishing you love and light OP[/quote]
