It stems from a deep sense of independence, of needing to decide and stick with it. Without asking for perspective or advice. I'm stubborn.
I'm not a mom that is an island. My parenting has been assisted since Wynn was diagnosed with autism at age 3 and a half. Family, friends, teachers, therapists, the doctors who give me their cell phone numbers and my awesome neighbors who just wave....
It's a given that I am feeling a bit panicked. Steve leaves for BC in 24 hours. And I'll have two teenagers to myself to raise, most of the time, and hopefully not completely ruin or scar. Except for one weekend a month. Sigh.
