"Kids need parents not friends." Yeah and now I don't need a parent and I don't know how to be your friend so visiting is just awkward.

deep down I think a lot of us want to say. "I love you, but I really really don't like you" to at least one of our parents.

my dad used "physical disciplinary actions" and now seems confused as to why I'm always just a little bit nervous or scared around him.

YES. my dad would get genuinely angry and then pretend his anger was a tool to teach us how tough the world is. never felt like they were on my team.

Getting kids “ready for the real world” doesn’t mean become their first exposure to the harshness of the real world.

the hyper independence kind of parentified us kids. Even at 41, It's easy to fall into the role of parenting my mom.

Help from parents = owing them something later on; or at the very least having it held over our heads.

You made me so independent that I have no attachment to you at all.

Why does deep conversations always feel safer and easier when you’re doing another task at the same time?

The only unrealistic part of this is that at the end she stops feeling sorry for herself and gets the point

I wasn't raised by my parents so much as I grew up in the house where they also lived. And I'm tired of hearing that they don't remember my childhood.

the whole "we're your parents not your friends" usually inhibits this idea of liking your parents company when grown as they're still not your friend

I’m convinced my parents didn’t really like us as kids, they just wanted the babies and not raising the humans part

They’re so angry at their impact while refusing to address their impact

I read that estranged parents can’t handle admitting they did anything wrong so they focus ONLY on how they feel, not any facts.

add to that the fact that any help you accept gets held over your head at any moment they want to cross boundaries

They took the whole “kids need parents not friends” saying so far I don’t want to be friends with them as adults

Hyper independence removed any chance of me being given away at my wedding. I raised myself, so I’m walking alone.

they sure didn't seem to want me around as a kid, why is the script flipped now that I'm on my own?

My parents would *never* admit I turned out how they raised me. Any fault I have is somehow entirely removed from their influence. Same result though!

Raising hyper independent kids is not the point. Raising well rounded, emotionally intelligent kids that know they can go to you when things get bad
