Riley I loved this….vent to and not at—well said.

I think it’s wonderful what your friend has shared with her family…

My boys are all big too and so this better be the last….we had a very long conversation about this. But my biggest concern is that he repeat it in the future with say a spouse or close friend and my concern: he not be forgiven. I wrote a minute version of my letter to him here, but as often is the case when our children are young adults they must learn it from themselves and we only hope it’s not through the hard way.

Thank you for the open and helpful comment—you are appreciated!!💕
