I believe that my sister and I both are stronger psychologically and emotionally than our friends and family, who had,for the most part, a trouble free childhood.Should I thank my Mom and Dad for being irresponsible and immature? Well, No. Of course Not. But, trying to look to the positive....I have to agree with this article. I am definitely more able than most to deal with traumatic events. I've had more than my fair share of tragedy. They say God never gives you more than you can handle....I suppose I can handle more than most....Believe it. What do you think? I'd be very interested in others' opinions!!
