My father's steadfast refusal to seek help for his alcoholism resulted in my parents' divorce when I was 14. Related storiesI heard sporadically from my father as I entered adulthood and even reluctantly saw him a few times. AdvertisementI understood my brothers' reasons for not wanting a relationship with our father. But I accepted their refusal to interact with him and my resulting role as his only caretaker as just another of my eldest daughter responsibilities. That created a lot of pressure, but I'm thankful my role in the family forced that path because I can look back on my relationship with Dad without regret.

I went from a stay-at-home mom to a working momAs a stay-at-home mom when my older kids were little, I lived and breathed all things motherhood. She arrived home to her grandmother and two older sisters, who were already well into their stacks of homework. AdvertisementLynnette Lyons had her youngest daughter when she was 38, and her older daughters in her early 30s. But, spread so thin, I didn't realize my older kids' demands on my time had caused the baby of the family to feel like an afterthought. AdvertisementI recently asked if she remembered being excluded from the family game night; she said she did, but didn't hold a grudge.
