Hard for me to know sometimes who does the best they can and who does not. One would hope no one would hurt a child willingly, but it does seem like there are situations where they do. Maybe caused by a mental health issue or substance issue? But still it should not happen. Someone should stop it!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07366010389846904663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3096598557803378399.post-73639255236487218152012-06-21T11:03:20.066-07:002012-06-21T11:03:20.066-07:00My thoughts on Father's Day and Mothers' D...My thoughts on Father's Day and Mothers' Day are very similar to yours Judy, rather bittersweet. I do believe that my parents tried and did the best they knew how. I know they loved us. Somehow it didn't always translate well, maybe because their childhood's weren't picture-perfect either. My children know beyond a doubt how much they are loved and how proud I am of them, and I bet yours do too, that's the most important gift we can pass on!

There is a difference between simply being fallible and not knowing everything and running one's life out of bitterness, addiction, or any other form of self-service. I sure get why you hate the parents' day holidays.Victoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13437738911794797906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3096598557803378399.post-34639173657878030132012-06-21T09:56:01.256-07:002012-06-21T09:56:01.256-07:00What insight Judy.
