TCMuffin, 30 days ago @BootsChantilly @RickiTarr I think for me, it was pragmatism 🤔 I had a miserable adoption. My dad left my mother when I was 18 months old and my mother blamed me. My mother kicked me out of the family home in 1978 when she discovered I was gay. Can I change this or do anything to ameliorate its effects? No? Focus on the stuff I can effect which will impact on my life in a positive way. As you say, YMMV 🤷
