2. This situation demonstrates in painful, agonizing detail the importance of becoming the parents that God intends us to be...which ultimately means that we are willing to deal with any wounds from our past that could prevent us from helping our kids experience their best life.

HENRY DAVID THOREAU (1817-1862) | "There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root."
