Why won't someone write a book (one that works) on how to parent when the wills get so strong. They would make millions. Make that millions upon millions. We were there last Wednesday.

Not because of what you did but because I can so vividly remember doing and feeling the same with you. The shame I felt over 30 years ago is still just as strong today and reading this just makes me so sad. I can only offer a tiny bit of advice that probably won't even help. Just try to tell yourself you did what you thought was okay at the time, admit to yourself - and maybe even to Keaton - that you lost control and then let it go. It will always be with you - I can still see the whole scene (one of them) in my mind and it still hurts after all these years. Parenting sucks sometimes! wow – that actually made me cry.
