Oof this makes me angry! Your children (all of them!) are so important, and so loved! They are a huge part of you and they are the defining moments in your life. No-one gets to say they don't matter. I'm sorry that you have to deal with this, and that people are being complacent about the fears you live with about RB. It doesn't disappear and it would be wonderful to have that acknowledged, support provided rather than an assumption of ''oh she'll be fine''. You'll do brilliantly of course, but support along the way would help immensely!
You are amazing. You are your children's voice in the world and you represent them wonderfully. Again, I'm so sorry someone close to you said something so unbelievably cruel.
I wish I didn't have to either, but I am not prepared to cut this person out of my life. Not sure why, perhaps some niave hope that they will change? Pigs might fly.
Anyway I had a counselling session and made a commitment to not be as critical and harsh on myself and I gave my harsh self critic a physical persona - that relative! ROTFL. At least it gave me a smile.
