Welcome OliEli's Mom!

First things first.

I think I can speak for the majority of folks on this board: You have our collective permission to go easy on yourself. Really.

Parenting is hard work even under the best of circumstances. We all do the best we can when times get tough. And it sounds like you did too over the last few years.

There is no getting around the fact that you needed to heal and take care of yourself. (Remember the oxygen masks on the plane! Adults, put yours on first, and then your kids)

You could have given her much worse TV to look at than PBS kids; It could have taken much longer than two years for you to feel better; etc. etc.

And now you are here on this forum, seeking advice. You are a great Mom! Your daughter will still be able to have great experiences and grow and learn and thrive.

You may have some catching up to do to figure out how to help her but that is ok too. we'll help.

So again. Go easy on yourself. And Welcome!
