I dont even know where to start on all the things she used to do to me while growing up. she used to
- take out all of her everyday stress and frustration out on me
- she used to scorn me whenever I stood up for myself
- always compared/contrast me with my cousins and kids of her friends who supposedly did things better than I did
- limit my friends
- limit my hobbies
- used to take off and leave me behind with relatives and other friends of hers
- treat me like I always her husband
- was obligated to get a job and help out with spending (even though my stepdad made enough)
- pressure me to move out and "get out of her life" literally on a daily basis
- always looked for an excuse to pick fights with me and then acted like a victim when I would retaliate
till then I was always told that us humans will always be bound to attract or be attracted to people like our parents. Celebrities like Eminem are a prime example of this as well. so I was wondering should we children of toxic parents just remain single forever? is this our only antidote for peace?
