so many many hugs. Yes, your achievements are yours.

I'm a little older than you and am still finding out all the things I should know but don't, things that an interested parent would have taught.

But I did get taught a whole load of shitty baggage.

Thank you ❤️

Yeah that last part I know all too well. I'm so fucking grateful that I'm nothing like my father. I learned early that he was bad. But it took a hell of a lot of work and effort to correct the bullshit he instilled in me.
