Default Re: parenthood and the meaning of life (long & x-posted with BBV4L)

Yeah, good luck andy. Some of my brothers were into hard drugs and it took them to some bad places. It was really hard for our family to deal with at some points. Especially my dad, who is a reactionary anyway, and that never makes anything easier. And we had lots of messed up kids as a foster family. Hopefully things work out as time goes by, even if for now they don't feel good or right for anybody. I can't say all my brothers or sister became every parent's fantasy in time, nor did my parents wind up storybook examples to the world, but the wounds did eventually manage to heal all around. Even my own, which I thought for decades was impossible. Good luck to you all, and don't give up ever. I think that's the most important thing and one of the harder things.
