29 分钟Dear sugar is supported by.
The universe has good news for the lost, lonely, and heartsick.
Sugar is here, the both of us, speaking straight into your ears.
I'm Cheryl strayed.
I'm Steve Almond.
This is dear sugar, radio.
O dear song, won't you please share some little sweetness with me?
I check my bell vibes every day.
Oh, and the sugar you send my way.
Dear sugar, how do I parent teenage children?
Through the scary minefield of risky behaviors of sex, drugs, and alcohol, when I myself was a terrible teenager and young adult who did many things that were dangerous, illegal and destructive.
One of my sons knows of my previous behavior only because he found my high school yearbook, which is full of notes from friends which tell many things about my past I wish he never knew.
I'm ashamed and embarrassed of the things I did.
He clearly knows I abused alcohol, drugs, skipped school, etcetera, when I was his age.
How do I talk to him about my past?
How do I respond to him saying, you did all that, mom, and you turned out fine.
I'm still making peace with my past.
Thank you so much, sugar.
Signed, former hellraiser.
Former Hellraiser, I'm so glad that you have written us, because this is something we thought about a lot as people who've written about our lives.
