Thank you both - the two areas of my life where I feel I can't "coast" in sobriety are as a parent and as a worker. Scratch that, the three areas are parent, worker and spouse - hang on the four areas are parent, spouse, worker and friend



When Astro said this -

we're struggling with his selfishness, ego, entitlement, and being spoiled in general.
I thought he was talking about me..

It's funny how my mind keeps trying to tell me that everything is about destinations - oh you've arrived at "good parent" - but my recovery is showing me all the time that I travel, and it's how I travel that matters, not where I'm going. So, thinking about the example I give, Astro, will be something I'm going to try and keep at the forefront of my mind. Thanks for that.
