Ellen

Hi my name is Theresa. I have three-grown-up children. Two sons aged 30 and 25 and a daughter turning 21 soon. My experience of parenting has included many different stages over the years. Like most parents, it hasn't always been easy, and there have been challenging and uncertain times alongside the more rewarding ones. Along the way, I've made decisions that have felt right at the time, and others that I've reflected on differently later. My children have all shown me that their way of seeing things can be very different from my own. Each of my children has had their personality,interests, and individual experiences, including different medical needs, which has been a part of our journey as a family. I would describe myself as open-minded, and much of my experience has been about adapting to different situations as they arise. I'm open to conversations about family life, including the ups and downs that come with raising children over time. Any conversation with me is based on my own experience---- simply sharing what it has been like for us.
