Because so many adult children lack the emotional maturity to deal with parental conflict and it's easier to cutoff vs. work through it (parents have ownership of this flaw also)

Donny Kincade :
My parents tried their best. They always made sure I knew they loved me. Did they make mistakes? Hell yeah. Do I blame them and whine about how poor I was or how much attention my brother got while he was in and out of children’s hospital. No. I know now how hard being a parent is. You go into it thinking you know what’s best but life hands you a reality check pretty quickly. These adult kids who cut off their parents are the most selfish disrespectful people.

Just because someone is a parent doesn't mean that they are entitled to treat their child however they please. I assure you, that decision to cut off was not made lightly most of the time but out (1/2

It’s a lack of development honestly. Adults should be able to accept the good and bad of a person. Abuse is different but honestly there is no peer development in teens and it leads to the teen completely focusing on the parent. Learn how to set boundaries and accept that people are human. I’d you’re cutting someone off to force some kind of change you’re doing it wrong the change comes from you and your development.

Some parents did the best they could but just didn’t know better. Other parents could have done better but just didn’t make the effort. I had one of each. And yes you can tell the difference.

The story of Esther teaches us about God's providence and sovereignty, even when we cannot see it, and the importance of courage, faith, and obedience in the face of adversity

I cut off my dad because he refused to even acknowledge the things he did, let alone apologize, hold any sort of accountability or go through therapy with me. So he's out. My mom, however, did--

My mom was my first bully. Criticized constantly, not the favorite child. And she kept doing it until I went no contact at 43.

Sometimes limited/closing contact is essential as an adult. You can understand parenting mistakes done as you were in childhood but when that disrespect and insults continue into adulthood then…

Nah, I went no contact over years of trying over and over again to communicate on my end. Both of them consistently proved time and again that they aren’t to be trusted. I decided enough was enough.
