Therapist told me my child was terrified to go to the family shore house because she had been rejected or ignored by the large group of cousins. She said I shouldn't take her unless I talked to the parents. I emailed them, and I guess I should have called. Now people are saying they hear my message but think I was criticizing them. Nobody told me this directly either, they did it through my husband. I'm sick of being the black sheep in that family.
We don't live in a war zone. We aren't impoverished. No major illnesses.
Still.
ohh, I hear you on that. I am the black sheep in my own family. am mama bear to quinn who is 12 and mtf. I just told my family via email this week. It's hard, they don't understand. How could they? Tried to be an concise and clear as possible. Still they don't understand. I am reading your blog today, all of it! : ) Thanks for doing the blog, its helpful
