💬 Comment “Halcott” and we’ll send you this powerful true story. Part 1: We introduced you to the family everyone wanted to be part of. From the outside, the Halcotts looked warm, close, generous, and IMPOSSIBLE not to admire. Part 2: We step inside that perfect picture, and we start to see what it actually felt like to grow up as one of Ruby’s children. Then Ruby’s mom dies, Ruby retires, and everything begins to shift, and the cracks in this family finally start to show. We learn something strange about Brandon… He doesn’t… really… remember… his childhood… Most of it feels blurry, like he’s piecing together a story from little flashes and from what his mom has told him. But there’s one person he remembers with perfect clarity, yet when he stays in those memories too long, he breaks down and sobs like a small child. Part 3 is where we take you all the way back to the beginning, to the moment Brandon was born, and suddenly the whole pattern starts to make sense. Why he gravitates to one place, why Ruby needs what she needs, why Rachel, Brandon’s sister, is the scape goat, and why the golden child, Catrina, is actually trapped in a golden cage. This is a very powerful, layered story about generational trauma and how favoritism quietly broke a ‘perfect’ looking family. We’ll see you in the comments, thanks so much for being here. 💛 #storytime #boundaries #HealingJourney #goldenchild #truestory - @mind_yourboundaries
