I relate a lot to this with my own parents. It sounds like you are working hard to make it better for Aurora so she won't have to see what you went through.

Wanting to be different and going to see q therapist is you already doing the best you can for your daughter.

You had an appalling childhood, which you seemed to have survived, but I can't imagine how difficult it has been. I applaud you for trying to include your parents in Aurora's life. I hope it works out for the best.
