Dr. L,

I started listening to you at a tumultuous time in my life. I started working from home, left a toxic part time job and had to stand by my morals as a parent . I realized that I needed to be a wife and mother, more than anything else.

This all seems like common sense but this thought process has caused problems with close friends and family. My husband and I made the choice to turn our family inward. We realized that if you are doing what others consider to be "right", it is probably not good for your children, family or marriage. We have lost some special people because of our choices. But our family is stronger, children are happier and marriage is better.

Thank you for being the voice of reason that has supported us through these choices, especially when the family that we trusted most could not. Thank you for also showing women that you can be a "soft" AND strong!

Many thanks, 

Emma
