For some reason my original post did not appear....
Anyway, my upbringing was basically normal and uneventful except for a hospitalization for third degree burns to my chest from hot water (tea cup) when I was 2and1/2.
My family was at the lower end of the middle class for most of my childhood, one car, no dishwaher, no clothes dryer. I didn't get everything I wanted but people loved me and pushed me to succeed so that I would be able to give more to my children.
I have a good education and a good job. My husband is even further ahead. My children barely have any of my bad traits (They just "file by pile", too, to my husband's chagrine). We have a lovely home all the cars and things we need. But I still don't like me. Nor am I happy. Why souldn't I be....
