The reason I posted it is because, as a parent, leaving my infant behind to go on the trip was difficult and ended up being completely not worth it given what happened. I understand that it's not about parenting, but neither are many of the other threads on here. Maybe this could be a good opportunity to start a thread about issues pertaining to platonic friendships? You have a thread for romantic relationships and family issues, maybe there is room for a thread about friendships as well.
I meant start a forum, not a thread. Sorry.
