It is about my struggles to make sense of a dysfunctional family and to break free from the influences of my Mother and to become my own person and the best Mother I could be for my own children. It is about my struggles against the bureaucracy and the supposed infallibility of both the ChildCare and Mental Health Systems. It is also about how life has become something worth living and how good the future can be for my family. About the AuthorDonna was born in Essex and moved to Australia when she was 5.
