Julie Fast's nephew talks about bipolar disorder

[fastjulie]

An interesting comment below. I would much rather my nephew know the terms of the illness and how it affects me. This makes sure I never ask him to take care of anything. It means I can show him I take care of myself really well! Education is the key when a parent has bipolar disorder!  Knowledge takes away any fear a child may have by giving them the power to decided how they can best deal with any situation. I am so proud of David!

I'm 100% sure he remembered...

This is always the dysfunction, the adult demanding the child take care of them, instead of the adult caring for the child.

This childhood is further robbed by being posted to the web.
