To everyone in a situation like this, while you are waiting for answers, do these three things: 1. Love that child unconditionally . In every way that matters.2. Read with and to your child. Books are an education in themselves. 3. Widen the boundaries of your tribe. The ones who celebrate you and your child, and do not simply tolerate you.

I grew up knowing that even if the entire world was against me, I knew my Mama and Daddy loved me. And some of the church people went out of their way for me. I had one dear sister in the church who came to every piano recital. She impacted my world.

Prayers and love sent your way.
