My purpose for being here to be able to educate and support my future children better.
Both me and my wife have S/A, and her family has a long history of it, and my mothers side has a history of mental instability, so really, i think our chances are pretty good our children will be like we are.
If my father had been more understanding when i was growing up, been able to better explain to me what i was going thruogh and why, and maybe just tell me he understood me, maybe things wouldnt have been as hard as they were. But i never had that growing up and neither did my hunny, we were both basically told to "toughen up, thats life" or "quit being sad and just get out of bed and go!".
I want to be what i never had growing up. At least give my kids a fighting chance and a better start than what i had. Im hoping with understanding and support they'll go farther and do better than I have.
