As adults, especially as parents, we want our kids to have a better life we had. As a teenager and young adult, I suffered from bad anxiety. My parents argued in front of us, struggled with money, not saying I had a bad childhood but now that I have a daughter I want her to have the best life imaginable and I don’t want her in her adult years holding on to things from her childhood. My husband grew up without a father, he abandoned him, his mom remarried several times, different step fathers in the picture. His dad passed away several years ago so he never got to chance to talk to him and ask him why he left him, his only son. His mom doesn’t talk about his father and he doesn’t ask her. His half sisters try to reconnected but he hasn’t really put the effort in. His mom basically moved states away and he has no connection with his dads side. There’s a lot of things he struggles with from his childhood. It got me thinking does everyone have something from their childhood that they struggle in adulthood? Did anyone grow up in a perfect family? Is there hope for my daughter? I want to give her the best life possible, my parents did the best they could for me, and I am happy with how I grew up it made me the person that I am today.
