born to someone who ... and may the gods forgive me ... I think should never have had a child. I have this opinion that those who choose to live .... a certain way ... teach their children to do just that.
Circles start this way.
If your parents are an alcoholic or abuse drugs... then there is a good chance that you will follow suit . If your parents diddled you when you were ten ... then you have a good chance that you will follow the same lines and have relationship and trust issues. If your parents are lazy and never choose to do anything... well... they teach their children that its OK to be lazy. On the other side of the coin... if you are a strong person, live a good life and strive for a better life. Then your children will learn to be strong as well.
I am not saying that this is fact... but it is a pattern that happens all to often. The good thing is that sometimes, a parent says.... This happened to me ... and I hated it. If they are strong willed enough ... they can break the circle.
This is my fear.... my nightmare. Not only for her but for myself as well ::: I cant help but to see a continuation of a circle in regards to Red. I saw her treat one animal after another the same way. And I am afraid she will see her child as a novelty and within time... start to treat her child the same as she had treated her animals. Then again, I know she can see the difference between a scruffy rat dog or turtle and a baby that is something of your own blood.
I hope that this child will make Red a better and more responsible person. She cant afford to return to the way she lived before she got pregnant. I want to believe that things will be better. I am happy that it was a successful birth. I am happy to know that both Red and the spawnage are healthy. . .
And I cant wait till they are able to leave the hospital and return home. I know the Patriarch is happy and a proud father. I know that even though he wont be able to retire when he wanted that he will still continue to step up.

In other news...
Blessed Samhain!!
Ol' Hollows Eve will soon be here... Cherish the ones that have left this life for they will return for a short time. Leave treats for them on the 31st and light candles for them to help guide them home and then back to the spirit world.
This weekend is a time for joy and remembrance.
