    For ppl like myself, let’s hope that we can be the family we wish we had…

    A thousand times this! My family sucked at being supportive. But if anything, they taught me what not to do as a parent.

      Hehe yeah, that’s the unfortunate silver lining…

        On that note, both my parents were physically abused as kids, but never laid a hand on me or my siblings. Like most parents, they weren’t great at parenting, but I am thankful I never had to be really afraid of my parents.
