[QUOTE="joelcam, post: 109400, member: 23163"] Really feel for you and I can imagine that the same thought would be going around in my head too... Even if your little one did remeber (which I doubt) they would understand that it was something that was not your fault...don't feel bad. Your little one will not be affected by it. Being a parent (which I am, have 2 boys 4 and 5) you will always want the best for them and I used to constantly judge myself and the decisions I made about their upbringing but to constantly judge yourself is to constantly create pain for yourself. You need to accept what has happened and stop worrying about it. If you spend your whole life worrying about something that has already happened (the incident) OR what will happen in the future (will my kid remember etc) you will have spent your whole life worrying about the past (which has happened) and the future (which never really happens). Focus on the present moment and do all you can to make the present moment as good as it can be, that is the only time that you can actually do something about your situation. Whenever you feel yourself going into the past/future bring yourself back or you'll end up regretting wasting your life worrying about things you cannot change. Hope this kinda makes sense, I live by it and never find myself feeling down about anything. JC [/QUOTE]
