That’s some shit, I’m sorry your starter-pack family had some real issues. You probably realized this at some point since then, but just in case you need to hear it, you should know that you’re valid, and you matter, and you deserve to be included and to belong. That goes for anyone else reading this too, no child deserves neglect and we’re all just babies. I hope you’ve found other people since then, but whatever small level of connection we have here, you’re a human out there somewhere and I really value your presence. You make me smile multiple times a day. Thanks for being you and I hope you have an even better day than the one you’ve wished me.
