That's a really difficult path you've walked you brave soul. *salutes
People should need legal, financial and psychological clearance before they have kids 😡
I'm sorry you had to go through that. But... (I'm a mom so I get to do this)
it's made you who you are today AND you get to share that and the learning you've gained with those who're still in it to guide them.
Not many people could have pulled something like this off. You must be a very strong and very powerful human being. *salutes
