i made some shit (though not abusive!) decisions when raising my stepson after his mom died. kid’s a fucking genius though as an adult. we have a good relationship now and i am grateful for him. i was 25 when his mom got cancer. i was 31 when she died. he was 10. i’m in my late 40’s now and he’s in his 20’s and he’s got a good head on his shoulders, even if he’s still a 20’s age boy sometimes. (like when he bought a crotch rocket and fucked is back up within 3 months…)
