Parents
Parents
Especially the dysfunctional ones.
Even when their heart and minds are right they still are horrific.
I don't think they mean to.
Or at least most of them.
But somehow no matter what you try to do to avoid it.
No matter what you do, nor say, you can't get out of it.
You WILL emotionally scar and damage your children beyond repair.
As I said. It's unavoidable.
That's how we form our own parental ideals. PURE RESENTMENT.
Over your own parents,
for the things they did to you,
and your futile attempts to prevent you doing it yourself.
Parents will fuck you up.
End of story.
