This week it's sharing stories. I'd like to invite you to share a time of difficult mental health; past or present, yours or someone else's. We know there was a stigma to sharing, but the fediverse is open, caring, and listening and it's 2024

Being a dad isn't easy. Most of the techniques we've learned for dealing with people don't work on kids. I find myself understanding my parents much better, and trying to avoid their mistakes.

It does get a lot better though. My kids are old enough that we can talk and joke with each other, which makes things so much better. They're starting to learn responsibility, which makes things easier.

I hope 2024 works out for you. Good luck.
