At first, we see our parents as the hero's in out life's. Everything that they do is completely perfect. We don't question it. We didn't dare to question it.
Years pass...
We start to develop or own thoughts and opinions. We start to determine what's wrong and right, and see that our parents do/say something questionable. Yet we don't dare to say anything because they are our parents and out of respect we bow our heads or turn the other way.
The image of the action still lingers fresh in our minds and questions follow.
Is the action of my parents acceptable?
I thought they said that was wrong?
More years pass and we start to realize that the behavior that your parent displayed once was a continuous pattern that was hidden from us to not taint their image that we once had in our minds.
We begin to wonder if we also display these actions towards others...
No it couldn't be because we were able to distinguish right from wrong at an early age and what your parent is doing not only wrong, but toxic.
Then we realize that the things that we consider "normal" are the things that traumatized us growing up.
No it couldn't be.
Oh yes it can be.
Child you are hurt. Broken almost. Your parent wanted to live through their unfulfilled dreams through you.
You want to do your own thing but don't know how to without hurting your parent or getting into a fight that ends up hurting more you than them.
Parents let your kids grow and be their own person.
There is looking out for them, and then theirs suffocating them.
Hurting them. Losing them. Breaking them.
Let your children see you for who you really are, flaws and all because we know that at the end of the day you are human as well and are capable of making mistakes.
To the kids...
Be whoever you want to be. Be the person you were meant to be for yourself.
Understand that your parent is not perfect nor will they ever be.
Be kind to yourself. Protect yourself because sometimes even family can be toxic.
To society....
It's still a big fat fuck you. I said what I said.
Sincerely,
Sam Blue.

Replyhow? Many kids go through this. Maybe you didn't but someone out there has. It is all the matter of perspective and experience.
