I don’t agree with this in all cases.

True, parents usually have a deeply ingrained emotional need to protect and nurture their children but:

• Not all parents do. Narcissists have children all the time. When they do, they cloak their emotional vampirism in ‘love’ like they do in all relationships.
• Even parents with the best intentions have to work HARD not to pass on their generational traumas, abuses, and bad habits.
• Only the child can truly know what will fulfill them as a person. Parents often substitute what they wanted for their younger selves for the child’s best interest.

For those still thinking I have no idea what I am talking about and you and your parents are different… please look into “enmeshment” for your own sake

Homie I’m sorry that happened.

You might want to do some research on:

• verbal abuse
• narcissistic parent
• low self esteem

This is what I wish someone else told me.

Good luck on your journey
