Both my parents were products of history and they didn't understand what they needed to do, nobody really did that work in the 70/ 80s...

I carried it through marriages and am Only digging into it at 54. Like digging into the grand canyon with a beach shovel!

Hope to try and break the cycle for my kids who are 22,23 and 30 now...
