Quote: if that "great marriage" their parents seemed to have could suddenly fall apart without warning (so far as they knew) then what else that they trusted in is actually suspect too???
This remains a fear of mine for S6. I find myself going thru life searching for the absolute truth, knowing that my view are biased with my perception. Knowing that my M was skewed - at least in the final years - by the pulling away of my XW - I do wish S6 could have grown in that sense of security. The idea that, no matter how hard the storm blows outside, Mom and Dad are keeping home safe, could have been a nice stepping stone for him. I'll be doing my best to provide that for him in as good a manner as I can.
Have a fun time on vacation with your family, Ellie. Sounds like you'll be going to the nice warm tropics!
