So that happened to you too? (((Hugs))). I'm so sorry they said that. They would say "you don't know how lucky you have it and kids have it much worse" after doing something very traumatic. I knew people did have it worse so I guess I did see myself as lucky and then in turn didn't have high expectations of how people should treat me. Now I fear I'm in the opposite direction and offending unintentionally. We need to stand up for ourselves but not cross a line.

How far are you in the healing process? I'm just really starting.
