This one goes out to all my fellow teeterers: those there, those almost there, those formerly there, those who were unparented or lost parents (literally and/or figuratively) and never quite teetered, whatever your relationship to The Teetering Years, this is for you.
Sigh. It's so true. Hugs to you & all fellow teeterers.
