Being robbed of your childhood can look like…

  • Having to parent and take are of your siblings
  • Experiencing emotional and/or physical neglect
  • Providing regular emotional support to a parent
  • Keeping the peace in a chaotic home
  • Pulled into arguments or issues between parents
  • Having to figure out everything on your own

Reading this list really validates my troubled upbringing. According to research, 50% of us have difficult family scenarios and 8% of us are fully estranged from our families. That makes me feel a bit better actually. Just sayin’ :) Hugs and good luck. XO
