For more than thirty-three years I have sat with parents who were genuinely shocked by the children they were raising.
They came into my office carrying the same stunned sentence: “I had no idea.”
Sometimes it was about hidden sexual behavior. Sometimes it was about substances, self-harm, online activity, or emotional alliances with peers that completely contradicted the child they saw at the dinner table. In adoptive families the shock often carried an extra layer of grief: “After everything we’ve done for him… how could he still be living this double life?” In biological families the disbelief sounded slightly different but carried the same weight: “We’re a good family. We go to church. We eat dinner together. I thought I knew my own child.”
The painful truth is this: they didn’t know. Not because they were negligent or unloving, but because they had never been given permission to see what was actually happening in the second culture that has always existed right under their own roof.
