hi @LilMapleLeaf -- I took a few days to think about your words and they were tremendously helpful. "People who are actually being dramatic usually don't care if they are or aren't" really stuck with me. 

The anger gets really overwhelming some days and I don't know if it'll ever stop. I guess all I can do is do that grieving process, as you said. Hopefully at the end of that, I'll be a better adult and better parent than the ones who let me down. Thank you for your kindness 💛
