Deeply Conflicted

[Griff]

My perspective is tainted by my world-view. I see a planet with a lot of people on it so we decided to replace ourselves and stop at two, but in contrast I see an American society where the least fit to parent are generally the breeders, see gravdigr's awful children at ground zero thread. I see you as an unbelievably talented parent who has a lot to give. That said, I guess in your shoes I'd focus on the very challenging kids you have and begin making some space in your life for yourself. You appear to be a person who gives and gives, folks like you sometimes forget to tend to self.
