Autism

I’ve always felt different from other people. I didn’t always know why I was different, or what I did that made me different — I still don’t realize it sometimes.
Being a Stepfather

There’s been such a huge loss. A large part of their soul was gutted when their family was ripped apart. It took me too long to truly understand the pain they had been through.
Fatherhood

Whole days can pass by without any heart-felt communication with my kids whatsoever.
Fatherless

Alone with my thoughts in solitary confinement, my worst fear was never seeing my daughter again. I didn’t want to be the father that my father was to me.
Infant Death

Our son Samuel was diagnosed with Trisomy 18 at twenty weeks gestation. We were told that this made him incompatible with life. We were given the option, but chose not to terminate.
Infertility

Our New Year’s resolution for 2015 was to get pregnant. That might sound like a simple thing to some, but for us it was a huge and intimidating goal. It would take a miracle.
Miscarriage

“Your baby has not developed further.” This can’t be. It must be a mix-up. When would I wake up from this nightmare?
Postpartum OCD

I lived in fear of myself, and when I looked at my son, I thought it was sad and strange that I had to include myself in the list of people he needed to be protected from.
Single Fatherhood

All I wanted was to be a dad and to give my daughter the love and fatherly attention I never received from my own.
Single Motherhood

Sometimes my reality was working two jobs to make ends meet while I was raising my girls. I wasn’t sure I was going to make it, and my ex told me he didn’t think I would.
Special Needs Children

There are days when I have a pity party for myself, when I mourn because I can’t have just one normal day.
Suicidal Child

I felt like a failure as a mother. How could I have let my son become so depressed that he wanted to take his own life?
