@anthony.hester: Being the “little husband” to your mom is one of the most damaging forms of emotional parentification. Instead of being allowed to be a child, you were forced into the role of caretaker, confidant, and emotional partner. This toxic family dynamic shows up in households with emotionally immature parents, narcissistic mothers, or codependent parenting. It creates deep trauma wounds that affect adult children of dysfunctional families long after childhood is over. If you grew up feeling like your mother’s partner instead of her child, that was not love, it was emotional abuse. Healing from parentification, enmeshment, and role reversal is possible, and you are not alone in this journey. This content is for cycle breakers, black sheep, and survivors who are ready to reclaim their childhood, set boundaries, and finally put down the weight they should have never carried. #emotionallyimmatureparents #cyclebreakers #toxicfamily #childhoodtrauma #parentification

The psychological term for that is MATERNAL ENMESHMENT. They destroy their children.

What about older children? Parents thinking you’re their therapist?

Whenever I hear a child that went no contact with parents, they are always 1000% justified

My sister has done this to her 3. daughters. One is now an adult and still indulges her to protect her teen sisters as much as possible. It's heartbreaking.

I'm the eldest daughter of 5. I went no contact with my entire family after I pressed charges 2 years ago. Been a care taker since I was 4.
