They're the days that look \"fine\" on paper — birthdays, Christmas morning, school milestones, first days back — and yet I still feel that sting afterwards. In this episode, I'm talking about why milestone days can hurt more than you expect, especially when social media tells the story first. Not because a photo is \"wrong\"… but because the timing, the caption, and the implied narrative can leave you feeling edited out of your child's life. This isn't petty. It's grief meeting visibility. And it's more common than people admit. In this episode, I cover: Why special occasions after separation can feel heavier than ordinary days; The difference between missing a moment and being missing from the story; How \"posting\" becomes a proxy fight for identity, belonging, and being seen as a parent; What kids absorb from adult emotion around photos, captions, and visibility; Practical social media boundaries that reduce conflict and protect children.
