My parents serparated in 87 or 88 (funny how I can't remember anymore) and things with my dad were hard for a long time after that. I have made peace with him, but now I struggle to do the same for my mother. These parents of ours, I don't think they thought too much about what it meant to be parents. They just kind of did it. Not only have they shaped what I am and am not, but also how I do and don't parent. .-= Capital Mom´s last post ..<a href="http://capitalmom.blogspot.com/2009/12/elevator.html" rel="nofollow">Elevator</a> =-.
