Abusive parents will go 'Oh yeah? Well I had it worse! My parents were bad!' and it's like, Oh? We can acknowledge that your parents were bad? You can say that? You can say they treated you very badly? You know this and are aware of this?
And yet, when raising your own child, you used their methods and decided that you are the victim here? That it's okay because they've done it 'worse'? You're comfortable telling your children that they're paying for however you've been treated, and that you specifically had your children to expose them to all of the bad things that happened to you? The world feels fair to you if your own children are suffering? That's where you take your power?
Your parents were bad and you know this, so you went ahead and became a bad parent on purpose, and you're thinking you're the victim in all this?

I can still FEEL this day…
We were at a family party so she wasn’t going to do anything, but all the discomfort is apparent in this photo. My parents were notorious for walking away from events like these and then complaining later, usually making it all my fault. This was like 15 years ago.

Social media is terrible for this brain space.
But every time I think I’m making too much of how a person’s vibe feels, and I wait around for “proof”, it turns out I was right after all …

Fuck you for making me feel like the monster while you were the monster. Carry the guilt of your crimes by yourself you fucking coward.
