[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 760387, member: 18958"] Dear Susie and volunteerchild I just bought this book online for $3.43 used. I can't believe I am only now paying attention. It seems to me that all of us need a book like this, to be called upon to rise above hurt and all manner of smallness. Volunteerchild. I was the parent who moved around too much. In different countries and throughout my state for work. I was called on it, and I didn't stop. I have rationalized the moving around in that my son had many experiences, and is trilingual., which gives him a lot of self-esteem. I apologize for projecting this onto you. I think it's easy to look at what we do (don't do) as a way to make sense of what's happened. It is usually just self-flagellation. After all of these years I still do it. I am sorry. [/QUOTE]
