My therapist acknowledges the s*cky part of growing up, though I think he also sees some benefits I don't quite grasp.
He also said he hoped that if I could only save one person from a fire, I'd save my son before I saved him. I never really liked that analogy - not least because my tall broadshouldered and healthy son is now more likely to have to save me from a fire. But I daresay that if I have only one kidney to give, I'd give it to my son, or my husband, before my therapist. I think the point being that there are people more important than him in my life, just as there are people more important than me in his life.
