Do you ever feel like you could be really screwing you kid up?

If you are a parent of course.

I have the perfect son and often look at myself and think how did he end up so perfect? There are times though when I look at him and cant help but think what if I have ever done any damage to him.
When he was younger, me and his mother who are now separated went through one hell of a messy break up that went to family court and had to deal with police and the whole nine yards.
I hope he doesn't remember any of that because well it was bad.

Maybe that is apart of being a parent, just second guessing yourself no matter how perfect your child is to you, You cant help but feel you are one step away from messing them up so much.

Being a parent truly is the most rewarding thing in my opinion but also the most stressful torturous thing you could ever do to yourself

Raising children is like learning to play the violin on stage at Carnegie hall. No one gets it perfectly right. Three out of ten is a great average in baseball. Shooting for perfection is pointless.
