Enjoy your children because you are blessed. Don't think about the most horrible things. Your children are healthy, and you are the best parent for them. I was also diagnosed with Crohn's disease in adolescence. I had the same fears as you, and this is normal because we want our children to be the most beautiful, the smartest, and the healthiest. I have two children aged 11 and 12. They are my greatest joy. I try to give them a good education and a favorable development environment. I want them to develop in harmony; that's why I chose to overcome the fear that they will become victims of cyberbullying because it is a current topic. I downloaded the appl https://www.familyorbit.com on their devices, and so I feel safe, and they too.
