"You want your parents to be involved in your child's life, but at what cost?"
Both of Jamie's parents are alcoholics and are still in a gut-wrenching divorce that's been going on for years. She has been working daily to break the chain of trauma, and what once crippled her has made her so much stronger.
"It was a scary thing to realize that this is no longer something that only affects me. This affects my kids. I have to ensure my kids are safe."
Disappointment. Lies. Heartbreak. Guilt. Grief.
If you've ever been stuck trying to navigate boundaries with your extended family, this episode is for you. Get ready to take notes from Jamie's example.
