Beauflow ~ I can so relate. As I've posted before, both my parents were alcoholics and we 4 girls got NO attention whatsoever. None.

So I can understand the reading I posted quite well. I always felt alone and lonely as a child, because for one thing, my oldest sister was also my tormenter.

But when I grew up and got sober (I'm a recovering alcoholic) I realized my parents gave me what they got! They couldn't give me something they didn't have! So I was able to forgive them.

Some things aren't "right" but we can learn to rise above them. Hugs, Lee
