If you could change anything about the way you were raised, what would it be?

[Jansetta]

[Nik1hil]

Yes,
I am broken and scarred, there are many things that! I could change about how I was raised..
-lack of social interaction.
-physical abuse by mom.
-verbal abuse by mom.
-physical and verbal abuse at school.
-Me being constantly sick..

They all broke me to the point that I tried committing suicide 3 time around 5th grade..

BUT on honest note!
I wouldn't change a single thing that I have been through, because each of that pain and scar makes me the person, The devil I am, it gives me power to break down the oppressors, use Fascists, and do things right by a common folk.

I wish my mom would have been more attentive. It seemed she would always ignore conflicts brewing between me and my brother until it got out of hand and somebody got hurt. Then she would rush in at the very end and decree punishment. Except it was all one-sided; there was only one party that would ever be punished.

[Jamie05rhs]

Thanks for the MHO, Jansetta. I really appreciate that.

[Tish94]

hidings and punishment... more of it to be honest. I got them as a kid and hated it... now tho that I'm an adult. I can see how more people should have had a couple of hidings growing up.

My mother was a single mom so terrible. She gave me birth control during my puberty screwed up my hormones and told me im suppose to sleep around... Ruined my life until i found God.

Not being neglected as an infant or bullied by my cousins up until 13. I have chronic anxiety now and it's super hard trying to unlearn my patterns and "rewire" my brain.

[something_memorable]

Id make it where i was born to an intellectual, progressive family in a country with free college and healthcare. Pretty sure that'd solve all my problems.

[cheapshotbob]

thats how you baby sit a kid lol ladys take note XD
i would change how i was watched a a kid maybe i would have turned out different
and my point of view would be less sarcastic.

[AbleLearner]

I wouldn't want to be raised by a Christian, but I would still want to know rational arguments for the existence of a real God.

[sockandshoes]

everything. my father was an alcoholic abuser. remove him completely from the beginning OR have him not be one and be a decent dad that i needed.

[StephenCF]

I wish I was given more stylish/dapper clothes as a youngster instead of the conforming, lazy, “trendy” outfits (tracksuits) which made me feel as worthless as every other child 🚶🏻‍♂️🤮

[bamesjond0069]

I was raised liberal, atheist and non traditional. I now know it is all wrong. I wish I was raised conservative, Christian and traditional instead. The alpha in me is strong because I never fit that mold and found my way out anyways.

[pasi02]

That my parents would've hit my dumbass more. I used to be such a terrible child

[R_Cakes91]

I wish I could have recognized my mother’s depression and helped her feel happier with her life.

[wankiam]

my upbringing was shit but it taught me independance so im not so sure i would change anything

[Anonymous]

I wish I came from a functional 2 parent family. No abuse, neglect and loving parents. Sets u up for problems in relationships,

[NickiB]

I would want my parents to duct tape me to the wall like that bebe.

I'm jealous.😭😭😭

[Phoenix98]

I would not no my parents did a wonderful job of raising me.

[Liam_Hayden]

I wish that maybe my parents hadn't spoiled me so much. I might appreciate things more if I had been forced to work for them.

[moonpie89]

My parents wouldn't still be together. One parents is super strict while the other is not. So it became confusing growing up

[Anonymous]

I would have been born with a silver spoon in my mouth

[DeviloftheValleys]

I wish we would have eaten healthier. I've got some bad habits that are hard to shake.

[Nikki1989]

It would have helped if my mum was around more often than she was.

[admles]

I'm pretty lucky, my parents are still together, I was well raised, well fed, raised Atheist, with good morals, lots of support.

[Guanfei]

I would have my parents abandon me and leave me to be adopted by someone else.
