The Choice Was Always Mine
Dr. Laura,
I just started reading your book, "Bad Childhood Good Life". I turned my life around approximately 20 years ago after having an abusive childhood. I am 56 years old now. I changed my life by taking responsibility for my choices similar to what your book says. After beginning your book, I have had anger at myself for being so stupid for so many years. I have two adult children who are screwed up and my daughter is raising two girls making many of the same mistakes with men that I made. I'm not sure if I am grieving for my mistakes or how I affected so many lives, but I feel angry at myself! Your solutions seem so easy!
Why did it take me so long to figure out that the choice was always mine!
Theresa
