This is the third full length episode of "You Can't Choose Your Childhood". For this episode, I tell the chronological journey of mine and my fathers relationship from as far back as I remember. This episode is the beginning of the male "father" figure trauma that I dealt with as a child that will be discussed in upcoming episodes.
