F!S helped me realize my parents are emotionally abusive. It was because of a secret I posted, and the reactions to said secret. (And no, it wasn't about Tangled.)

I don't think I've accepted it, but at least I've acknowledged it. And I live away from them now. I still like to spend time with them every so often, and my mom can still make me feel bad about myself with that critical glance she gives me every time she sees me, but at least now I have my peace for weeks at a time. (I can't stay away from my beloved pets any longer than a month or so.)

I'm guessing only one or two people will see this post so late, and that's all I want. I don't want a ton of attention. I just felt I had to say it sometime.

I'm glad you're working through it anon :) Thanks for letting us know how you're going.

Is having your pets join you in your new place at some time an option? i know that's not always a possibility :(

[(Anonymous)]

No, it isn't. :( I'm living on campus, and will be for the next few years. Besides, they belong to the whole family. It would be unfair of me to just take them away. (They're also pretty old, and might not adjust well to a new environment...et cetera, et cetera.)

That's awesome, anon. I had similarly emotionally abusive parents, and it felt great to ditch them.

And happily, when they realized they'd driven their children away by acting like dicks, they did a lot of soul-searching and self-improvement, and we all have a much better relationship now.

Good to hear it worked out that way for you. :) I don't think my parents have ever considered that their behavior might be wrong in any way. That's what keeps me from cutting off contact entirely (aside from our pets)...I just know how upset they'd be and I can't stand the thought of doing that to them.
