They could have provided for all your basic needs like food, home, etc and STILL neglected you emotionally.

I always said my mom did the best she could…then I realized she didn’t and walked away 5 years ago. Haven’t spoken since 🥺🥰

My line is: “They did the best they could, but now I’m going to do better.”

Yeah, this is something that's really hard for me to come to terms with, but I know it's 100% true. Neglect explains a lot. 🥺

You are also not obligated to forgive them if you don’t want to. I was able to forgive my parents but that’s my story ❤️

This is their response. Whenever I've been upset at things they did, they would scream at me they "did the best they could".

When I confronted my father he simply said “ well, that’s how my father was”. I knew then I wasn’t wrong in my assessment of him

both things are True, and also they are human, with pain and neglect of their own. not to say it's ok but to expect perfection from damage is nonsense

Exactly. I love my parents, but mistakes were made. I am very grateful to have parents who now acknowledge my pain.

my mom had untreated BPD, PTSD, and ADHD. She did the ABSOLUTE BEST she could at the time. I was also emotionally neglected. I'm jealous of my sisters

Finally telling my mom she damaged me was so freeing. And she was so ok with it. I was shocked

I needed to hear this today. 💕My mom met all my physical needs, but I really needed those emotional needs met as a kid. She really did do her best.

I think my mom did her best. My dad, no. I’m exhausted from being hurt. I’m well into my 40’s, and hurt continues.

If you have ever said “but my parents did the best they could” this is for you.

This hit me in the feels so bad today. I have had to distance myself from my family because they don’t like that I finally shared my story.
