.. what are the things you are most thankful for and also what do you feel resentful about?

Spoiler: me

thankful: I was never cold or hungry, stuff like that
resentful: I didn't feel loved and wasn't protected (emotionally)

I'm thankful they always do whatever I wish even when I don't deserve anything lol also, I'm grateful to my mom making attempts to accept me for being gay. She failed, but at least tried lol
I don't think there is smth I'm resentful about ^^

They were more than sacrificial throughout my entire life,they were ready to do and give up anything to provide not just for me,but for our family as a whole,especially in our earlier days when we were really struggling financially.

On the other hand,they can be so painfully ignorant,as soon as something is out of their box of knowledge they just automatically dismiss it as something stupid and unworthy,I don't think they've once genuinely supported me in something except school or whatever.

I am not from a good household, but I am so thankful the level of care my parents provide me is different than my sisters, she may be annoying and horrible, but I love her so much and she deserves the world

I'd like to say I'm not resentful to them, but the way they hurt me over and over again is hard to overcome. I wish they were better parents, because they are decent people

I'm grateful that my mom was never a helicopter parent or was one of those parents that believe they own their children. I see so many parents practically abuse their children online and otherwise because they think their kids our their property and thus can do whatever they want with them. My mom has always let me have my privacy, my own stuff, and has never been controlling.

I'm thankful for the loved and support that they give me. I am thankful for my step-dad for adopting me as his own and treating me like his biological daughter. I am thankful that I was able that they payed for my schooling and able to afford nice stuff.

I don't have no resentment. My real dad he a douche and everything as a person, but I never actually know him, so never had to dealt with him.

... I guess the only thing I can say is giving me life, basic but theres not much to be grateful..considering everything that me siblings and i have gone through the majority of our lives with my mother..
I don't resent her though oddly, it is what it is I understand why and how things happened plus and what's done is done but she had enough resentment for me to balance it out I suppose.

Besides the fact they're trash... I mostly got everything I asked for

I am defently thankful for my family and especcially my parents. I always tell my stepdad how happy I am that he came into our lives. He really is one of the people that I can trust 100%.
I am resentful towards alot of stuff. Mostly on the side of my biological father. He is a good guy but I have learned so much over the years how awful the life my mother was back then due to his mother and how she acted towards the people I care about.

I'm thankful that they worked so hard for me and my sister so we can live in a stable household and get a good education. My mother had to leave all her friends behind and my dad had to put in extra effort because he was a minority. I'm in endless gratitude for their work.

My parents make mistakes but they're human too so I love them a lot even when they do something wrong. I wish my mum wouldn't insult me so much but that's just her character and I can't really do anything about that. But I know she loves me and she shows me affection in her own way.

I'm grateful for the food and patience
Resentful for living in the middle of nowhere.

I learned to get used to it though.
