Children should never have to carry the weight of their parents emotional immaturity.

1. They did not do their best. 2. They could have done better but they chose not to, that’s not okay.

Erin Amanda :
I can’t get to this acceptance… bc I didn’t have that support either but I figured it out and did much better for my own kids. They could’ve done the same but didn’t.

Funny thing.. Our parents never got the emotional support or love from their parents and it was passed down to us- so Why is it that we can make the decision to go to therapy and our parents can’t?

Come on. We all “do our best”. Doesn’t mean we have to carry them emotionally our entire lives.

I can understand that but at some point they are responsible for their own healing/trauma just like we are. I’m not required to accept their behavior if I have expressed their impact over and over.

I accept that they did what they could with what they were given but I’m also not going to just let them treat my kids and little family crazy.

There’s a difference between incompetence and abuse. I will never accept how I was treated.

Well, I usually agree with you, but I completely disagree with you on this. Their generation has been given a right off by saying well we didn’t get it so we don’t have to do it.

It wasn't there fault but it sure as he'll was their responsibility to fix it. I will never "accept" it but I will grieve it and be sure to break that cycle with my daughter

Having to change would require them to admit they made mistakes which most ppl independent of their generation simply have an ego problem with

Dinky :
No. At some point the parents should realize what they caused and reflect not continue causing pain.

djoj :
mm.. But there's loads of parents nowadays who didn't get emotional support but do give it to THEIR children.. No excuses! They just didn't do their best. There was a lot of help available.

I can accept that, but it's not the things they did in my childhood, it's the way the act now, the inability to grow and de-center themselves. I have grown and they didn't keep up.

i_am_a_grownup :
I have come to terms I can’t fix/change my Mom. After decades of emotional abuse-told her I need an apology, which she refuses, have gone no contact w/ her. She takes 0 accountability. I’m done.

Deb Kershaw :
It wasn’t enough. No one protected me. Yet somehow I did the work to protect my family. Not excusing their lack of effort
