I was watching clips of this show and started crying. My son is self destructing and I think this may be some of the reason. His father hasn’t been in his life since he was a small child and the only man he called dad died when he was 10. I do thank you for this. I sent him the clip on Bobby cause that’s how I think he feels. Even though I was always there for him. I know it wasn’t enough. Something was always missing. So now I have to help him to find what it is and this is a starting point.
This series is wonderful. I cried when I saw Bobby. My son is self destructing and I think this is how he is feeling. His father has not been in his life since he was a small child and the only man he called dad passed away when he was 10. Even though I was there for him, it wasn’t enough. I have been blaming myself and I know it’s not my fault. You always want the best for your children and when you see them hurting, you feel helpless. I want to help him find his way and I think this may be the 1st step. Thank you for my stepping stone.
