Every parent makes mistakes and has things they wish they could undo but the fact that N talks to you and confides in you says you must be doing something right.

Please hear us, all of us who care about you and what you're going through. Most, if not all of us have been there too. I certainly have. I have made horrible mistakes that I though were the best things to do at the time.

You are NOT responsible for W's inability to be an empathetic and caring person and parent. This is SO not about HIS feelings, it is about N's. Do whatever you have to to protect N.

To know that you can be strong enough to make the changes you now see as a priority for bettering the life of your little boy.<BR/><BR/>Noone can, nor should, judge you. The important thing is that you are seeing clearly, that W can no longer come first. N must. And for N to thrive you must also come first with him.<BR/><BR/>I see so Fionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00727596416170770024noreply@blogger.com
