Dear Mrs. Richards:

The following quotes from your posts are very significant and I would like to understand better what you meant by them:

1. “When I was a kid I did have some of my basic needs deprived or shamed- like spending money on food, spending money in general”- how were you shamed regarding your basic needs being satisfied? What was the nature of your deprivation?

2. “my dad would always control my money and use it as a way to sort of. make himself feel good”- what did he say and do in regard to your money?
