Thank you for sharing this. I've come to similar conclusions. Some of my earliest memories are of being afraid of my father because he was an angry drunk. I'd try my best to be quiet and invisible. I ...

Hey! For me, I'm trying to think of it, and I can't really recall if this has ever happened to me. I don't think so, I don't really care how fluent I am, I can sometimes approach a stranger and ask a ...
