@miriamrshoman: absolutely terrified posting this but i wanted to answer some questions and hopefully bring some awareness to dv and abusive home situations #fyp #viral #storytime
Abusive parents love to make you feel like an unwanted house guest but then insist you don't leave the house. I'm 47 but think about that all the time. Proud of you!

I had similar parents and they also forced me to apply to only random small schools across the country saying that they wanted me “as far from them as possible” and with the threat of not paying tuition (like yours often did). I also believe everything happens for a reason because I met my now husband at that random small school and he helps me keep a healthy distance from my parents. My sibling got to apply to whatever schools she wanted to in state when her time came, and definitely hurt. I’m so in awe of your bravery, but also grateful there’s someone out there that understands the toll parents like these take on you.

Admire your strength and independence. Sometimes parents teach you how to NOT to parent.

I'm so sorry that your father was so controlling. You know I have two girls and their dad is such a narcissist always putting them down and it's so mentally wrong and I have to undo everything so I'm just glad that you were strong enough to see that this was very, very toxic for you and you're beautiful smart girl so good luck and God bless you

May I ask, what is your cultural background? I grew up with very strict, immigrant Greek parents.

So many people think of every excuse to not do anything. Holy crap! Your story shows that if someone wants to make things happen they will find a way. I’m so proud of you for rising above and not letting your family keep you down. You’re bada** girl.

My dad was the same, brown dads that think daughters aren’t human and have no romantic desires or needs well into their 20s, infuriating
