You know, from reading this, and from conversations with coworkers and friends, I marvel almost every day at how fortunate I was to have 2 amazing and loving parents (and now as grandparents to my children).

I tell my kids often that I have better parents than they do. (And it is true)

@tj78610 That’s fortunate. Even though don’t have children yet, not sure if I ever will. But if I do, I promise to never be like my mother.

@Mrowe718 My parents were awesome, not perfect! There are some things I did not carry forward where I thought "not good". Learn your cues and triggers from her bad example and you can break the cycle,if you choose one day to have children.
