It's a DARVO coded way to frame the child as the problem. My step mother did that to me.

"walking on eggshells" is code for "I have to think before I say whatever I want to you"

Yea when they say they “walk on eggshells” they actually mean, “you stand up for yourself and make it harder for me to abuse you”

“I can’t say anything to you!” But everything said was an insult or cruel 😭

my mom absolutely did this. She basically acted like a little girl who doesn't know what to do...

My mum said she has to “watch what she says around me” why are you about to say things that would upset and hurt me?

How many of you were also parentified, given all the responsibility and accountability, but none of the authority, making the “I need to walk on eggshells around you” even more insane🙋🏻‍♀️

My parents would ALWAYS say they were “walking on eggshells” around me…. But it was emotional neglecting & co-dependency.

They call not being able to treat you however they want as walking on eggshells.

A parent saying they have to “walk on eggshells” usually means “you set boundaries when I talk to you like you’re garbage and I don’t like that” 😂

My mom convinced her therapist that I was her “bully” after she’d actively abused me my entire life.

“I have to think through what I’m going to say before talking to you” Well, yes, that’s how a conversation works

Unfortunately, I was this parent. I have learned a lot since then. That doesn't change the damage I caused.
