RE: Rejecting Mainstream Parenting
I remember the injustice of being a child very clearly. It is an awful way to start life as a human on earth, and it makes sense that our adults are so cruel and irrational given their formative experiences! my son is 18 months old and we have a good heart connection. Sometimes i have to bring him in out of the snow against his will because his fingers are cold, but my heart aches! I know he thinks he is Jeremiah Johnson and i am ruining his fun....
I am glad you are in tune enough to make changes towards reality. Part of my recovery process has been learning which parts of me are my parents that i don't need anymore. Keep growing! It never stops...
Your comment has touched my heart @wildlocusthoney My childhood was particularly painful too and I also haven’t forgotten how it felt when those days were my reality. Literally the biggest point I have come to as far as my dark days was to shed light on the fact that I am now a mom myself and I have a chance at a deep connection with my kids if I choose. Deciding not to perpetuate history is huge, materializing it is even bigger.
I understand the scenario of bringing them in when the weather is bad, but that’s not so much a battle against his free-will as it is you looking out for your child. Yes let’s always keep growing! <3
