family #1
As your parents’ car pulls up you have tears in your eyes. You wonder if this was a good idea, but you push aside your doubts with the excitement of seeing your parents again. You have a lot of shame and guilt built up and this is not the happy ending you wish you would have. They accept you with open arms, but they do not understand everything that has happened to you and you can feel the tension even though you know they love you.
What happens next? If you and your parents want to seek help for your trauma go to Restoration #1. If you wonder whether you’ll ever belong somewhere again, go to Reaction #1.
