Thank you so much! I needed to hear this! How can I expect my own kids to fit this perfect mold of my former self which never existed? We do tend to idealize our generation and everything gets compared to this idealized and embellished time that never truly existed. We do not have to present ourselves as perfect beings to our own kids. They need to know that growing up is a bumpy path, and that we have been there too.
