“A beginning is a very delicate time.” ~ Virginia Madsen

August is not the typical time of year that new beginnings come up, However, for many families it is the beginning of a new school year. This is the time of year for new schedules and new school supplies. It can also be a time of new stressors if you are stuck in an abusive relationship. Adjusting to new teachers, schedules, more time (or less depending on your situation/schedule) can be overwhelming for both children and parents. If you are in an abusive situation, it can get worse as the abuser is having to adjust to the change, too. Maybe it’s time for a new beginning for you, too. Maybe it’s time for you to make that change to make things better.
