Re: What kind of parents did you have?

[(Anonymous)]

The kind with anger management issues. One died, the other was left behind to mistreat the children. No guidance, just assumed the schools would raise us. Also somehow heavily religious. Physical abuse, emotional abuse, verbal abuse, even some financial abuse. Huge temper tantrums for reasons I don't even know. Always leaned on the kids instead of the other way around. Plenty moments of covert incest that became obvious into adulthood. Lots of isolation, no encouraging friendships, but plenty of bashing what few friends I did have. And bashing of the dead parent in front of me.

One kid managed to get out and marry into a relatively normal, sane family.

It took me so long to leave because of so many mixed messages. I was expected to manage things that surviving parent could manage for themselves, but at the same time, I was harshly criticized for not being independent. Yet when I tried to live my own life, it was rage and sabotage, and massive guilting when those didn't work. I haven't spoke to the parent in years, but they still pretend nothing is wrong. Denial is strong, I guess.
