I'm sorry you went through that as a kid. No kid should have to endure that, but I'm glad you used it to refine and build your character. Many fall into the victim mentality instead (You can't blame them), so when someone "goes through the fire" and comes out the other side stronger and better for it, it also gives hope to those going through it themselves.
I'm glad you enjoyed the comment. I enjoy your posts. It's clear you put time and effort into them and want the interaction instead of just an upvote like many other posts here, and I hoped the level of effort and thought I put into it at least somewhat reflected the time you took to write your post. 🙂

Things happen and we can't change that they did so I think it's best to turn them to our advantage in whatever way possible.
Thanks for your comments about my posts, I appreciate that.
