Family is where it all begins!
First steps
First words
First information about yourself
and how the world works.
First laughter.
First tears.

If your family life was simple, congratulations and thanks for stopping by, but you are in the wrong place.
This is a space for people who had complicated families, (and that may be far too polite!)

If you felt like the outsider growing up, like you didn't quite fit in,
If you yearn for less complicated relationships with your family,
If you have mad urges to do a Thelma and Louise but squash them down,
Pull up a chair and sit a while...
I am sure we have lots to talk about.
Martine
