About Erika E.
(Top Expert on this page)

Expertise
I can answer questions about how to try to show your Parents/Guardian that they might be too judgemental about your Relationship. However, I will not help you completely ignore your Parents/Guardian, because no Relationship is worth the loss of trust of your family.

Experience
I have been through a very tough situation with my Mom, Step Mom, and Father, as well as my Grandparents when it comes to this subject. I feel very at home with this area, and I think I could be a great help when it comes to the ups and downs of your Parents and your Relationship
