I’m so sorry to hear what you’re dealing with. I think the most important thing we can try to take from the pains, is to try treating others better than we were treated, despite how difficult it might be.
Oh, that’s not what I meant. I was just trying to say us being positive can hopefully help others do the same.
Not to disagree with your general philosophy, but in this particular case amaze's parents are already being positive because they don't accept blame and want more contact. They won't start treating their child better after all these years; amaze would just stress themselves out. There's got to be some limit to how much abuse they should be expected to endure.
