Did your parents have an intentional parenting style? (1 Viewer)

Spoiler: I felt like this needed a spoiler just in case

Not hit us (which my mom failed), but the psychological damage and neglect did far worse than the beating ever would have lmao

I totally understand where you are coming from - even though I have children myself I can respect if others don't want to
everyone is free to do whatever they want children or otherwise and nobody should judge others choices even if personally it wouldn't be something that they would do
of course you aren't broken (you're just tasteless and on death's door but not broken!!!)

Thank you, friend! I appreciate you!

More seriously, I do think it's weird that people want to pressure people who don't want children into having them. It's like... you know children are sentient humans, right? They deserve to be surrounded by love and care like anyone.

Considering my mm's excuse was "they grew", maybe that's a yes lol

It is funny how low the bar was, and it was just normal! "They didn't die, so it's fine, right?"

I've talked to my dad about this as an adult, and he was like, he only hit us when we REALLY deserved it. So it was fine.

Back to: the bar for acceptable behavior used to be so low.

I don't want to be too harsh, but my mom was and still is a helicopter parent. Basically just overprotective on where I go or what I do. That comes with her being strict as well

yeah and its funny because I wish my mom WOULD treat my little siblings the same because one is becoming a brat (self entitled and rude to his own parents) and I'm just sitting here thinking "if this was me, I would gotten massively punished already"
