About
My name is Lin Burress, and I’d like to welcome you to “Telling It Like It Is”.
Many of my articles are on topics that affect me personally, or have at one time or another in my life. Topics include articles relating to friendship, marriage, divorce, parenting children & teenagers, parenting adult children, “helping vs. enabling” grown children, dealing with in-laws, caring for elderly parents, blended families, child sexual abuse or abusive relationships.
I put a great deal of effort and thought into my writings to hopefully benefit you, my readers. It is my hope that you will find my articles some that you too can relate to, perhaps events that are now or have happened in your life, or in the lives of someone you care about. Even through the pages found in cyberspace, we can often times touch the heart of someone having similar experiences or difficulties, and how much easier it is when you know you are not alone.
My children are mostly grown now, my youngest being 19 years old as of August 30, 2008. My oldest is 28 years old, and I had what many have referred to as “stepping stones” for children, in that each were born about two years apart. That in itself gives me a great deal of material to write about, from pregnancy and birth, all the way through the teenage years (where you just might think you’ve lost your mind completely), followed by college and young adult lives.
I hope you enjoy Telling It Like It Is. Feel free to post your questions or comments on articles of interest to you. I do, however, reserve the right to delete any comments I deem inappropriate in any way.
