Still hugging for me feels odd. Growing up in non affectionate home does lifelong damage

Aww Damon… I’d say sending hugs, except I won’t. I’ll send warm healing energy your way.

Melissa, as always, connected some amazing dots. I wish I could hug and help ever child and even every adult's inner child.

The other thing that is creating this current administration's horrors, related to children not having rights and wanting to own people, is that Trump's childhood inflicted unhealed damage on him (I'm guessing). He's still lashing out for the child he was.

Thank you all for everything!

@BethCruz and I discussed this on a live before. It’s called bastardization ….and it’s beyond me that the people who adopt don’t even realize they bastardize their own “bastards” in some very sick psychological need to dominate.

I wish that more adoption agencies and psychologists would be privy to these facts to be able to support their clients who are going to adopt —and especially those who have been adopted , and who are all too frequently victimized just for existing .
