ALL LIVES MATTER – AS COVID-19 BREAKS THROUGH PRISON WALLS – A Mother Advocates on Behalf of Her Incarcerated Son

I have worked hard over the years to connect with my troubled adult son in ways that are helpful, not harmful; ways that are encouraging, not enabling;ways that help him find dignity within his many disabilities.

Quotes by Allison Bottke (?)

“...it's our own lives we must make healthy, not our adult children's lives, no matter how much we want to help them.

How they live their lives, the choices they make or don't make, and what they inevitably choose to do or not do with their future is up to them, not us. It's amazingly empowering when we begin to define and clarify our own issues as parents.”

“Clearly, Boundary Setting 101 is not typically a part of a child’s education. If anything, most of us have been conditioned to not set boundaries as a way to avoid the negative reactions of others. The ability to set boundaries to take care of yourself begins with the belief that your “self” is worth caring for.”
