The truth and vulnerability in this interview is so appreciated and needed. We all make mistakes parenting, big and small, and we need more stories like this where we recognize our mistake and actively work to change it, to be better for our children so they can be better than us. Thank you so much for sharing your journey!

Thank you, Heather. I am old enough now that I do think there is great value in sharing mistakes and lessons learned. In earlier years, I might have been concerned about what others might think. But we are all making mistakes and learning, are we not?

Thank you for sharing this Susan - so vulnerable and so powerful to share something that's taboo but happens to so many of us. I remember well the rage I felt at my son not sleeping when I was so, so desperate for sleep. It was truly moving to read your experience and your journey to heal from your own childhood. Thank you.
