What I have noticed in myself, is that I have endured so much judgement and intolerance in the outside world, that it is sometimes hard for me to maintain my balanced perspective at all times. I have been told that I am "mean", "too strict" and "unfair" by the uneducated, while I am trying to provide the structure my kids need out of love for them, for years now. There are emotions I carry because of this. I have been going to the Attachment Disorder Support Board and there are people struggling with the emotions there also. These boards are a place where we can let go a little, and sometimes when you open up a little, too much comes spilling out. I see this in myself and I can certainly accept it in others. As in everything, we just keep trying and do our best. My heartfelt, very best wishes to everyone here. Love, Dianna
