What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Avi Fishoff — TWiSTED Parenting’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

If I didn't have my parents, my my parents support, I I mean, without a doubt, I wouldn't be alive. It's not a not really like a something I have to think about for more than a split second. I mean, it's obvious if I didn't have my parents at my side, I wouldn't be alive. The reason that we're doing this is because there are parents out there that throw their kids out of the home. And you're here to show that if you keep the lifeline going, right, miracles can happen. Keep your kids alive. happen. Keep your kids alive. My name is Barak. I stand before you tonight not as someone who has all the answers, but as living proof that the words of breast ring eternally true. There is no despair in the world at all. For over 10 years, I was that child you cry about at night. I was the empty chair at your shabas table. The phone call that never came. The son who broke his parents' hearts daily simply by his parents' hearts daily simply by existing so far from everything they held sacred. I drifted from Yiddishkite like a boat torn from its anchor. Carried away by currents I thought were freedom, but were really just confusion and pain. My parents, may Hashem bless them, they never stopped loving me. They never stopped hoping. When I was angry, they were patient. When I was distant, they stayed close in whatever ways I would allow. When I rejected their world entirely, they found ways to show me I still belonged
