From the time they hit middle school, they start moving away from home. They are not doing anything wrong; it's just the way they are made.

The older they get, the more important it is to have other voices in their lies saying the same things but in a different way. ↗

I didn't want it to be one good memory that led to a lot of bad ones. I wanted it to stay what it was, one amazing moment, something that was strong and sweet enough to stand on its own. Something I could remember without any pain. - Kate ↗
