Can't think of what if's. If one thing had been different in my life, I would not be with the love of my life. I probably wouldn't have the kids/grandkids that I have and I wouldn't know how strong I really am.
Yea this is a universal truth to looking back. However I give myself a little leeway when I'm pondering my childhood.
My parents abandoned me when I was 18 months old. I was in and out of over 60 placements in the span of 18 years.
I figured it out once, I was moved on average once every 2 weeks for 17 years.
Ever hear of a book "A child called it"? That was about the extent of it, maybe worse. So yea, I would have really appreciated at least 1 adult who gave a crap when I was a child.
Sometimes when you want to be through with the past, the past isn't through with you. EH -
