Although my kids are enrolled in a public Science high school, there were costs involved when they make projects or when they go to school trips and so much more, not...

Writing this piece is actually a struggle for me. Why? Because I know that this will trigger emotions that I don’t like to feel.  I haven’t talked about these feelings to anyone and this is the only time that I am pouring it out.
