the way i see things now are so different then how i used to see them. i know my parents loved me. how could they not? i'm their only little girl. they just did the best they could that they knew how at that time. i don't even think there's anything to forgive.
they are excellent grandparents and through that, i see how good they both are. i know they live with a ton of regrets where us kids are concerned but, i have none. they've shown me more love then anything negative IMO.
I think people like us that grow up this way make us stronger people in the end. we're survivors and that is huge! that's our foundation right there.
