The older I get the closer to my own age the Ts become. The very first one that the ER recommended was maybe my father's age. After that they were all female and closer to my age. Both with and without kids. I tend to be drawn to those with alternative lifestyles. For me the big divide was that none of them ever truly experienced poverty or homelessness so sometimes their suggestions were unrealistic. One of my Ts was an American Indian raised on a reservation she more than any of them understood poverty and its effects.
