    Re: "rebellious phase," I didn't really have beef with my parents until I was 35. There's still stigma to treat it like a teenage rebellion phase except delayed. It's just an excuse not to give your argument legitimate consideration.

    Sex Ed is critical. I had a friend in highschool who had her first abortion when she was 12. The father was a family member. This is why we need to start Sex Ed earlier. Literally at 10. 4th grade. The irony here in the states is that the same people who want to outlaw abortion are the same people who oppose Sex Ed. You know what the best way to stop abortions is? Teach the kids about sex before they learn it on their own.

      Plus they also propagate myths about masturbation being sin, crazy, making you ugly and causing all sorts of health problems and also that coitus interruptus, birth control or even the mere idea of enjoying the act of procreation is degenerate.
      They just willfully ignore everything that could _actually_ reduce unwanted pregnancy and instead keep pushing the utterly unrealistic expectation of premarital chastity. As if things like the hormonal chaos and sexual discovery during puberty just wouldn't exist if they don't acknowledge it. 🙈🙉🙊
      And to top it off, when the unwanted child is then carried out, many pro-lifers don't give a flying F~~~ about it. They just leave an immature and desperate teenager to figure out parenting on their own and feel high&mighty for having "saved a life".

    In 9th grade I had a friend with a serious disease (forgot what its called). So basically she has a seriously undeveloped imune system, so if she were to get covid, she would have a 97% chance of death. I wore a mask the entire school year to protect her from that. I got bullied for being a "weirdo" and such, but I never stopped wearing it. Her imune system is still horrible, but good enough that I don't have to wear a mask anymore.

      @ammitthedevourer7316 Před rokem +13

      Same here. If you’re still working on it, here’s some things that are helping me.
      1. Yes, someone, somewhere, and sometime else may be worse off, that’s true. But misery isn’t a contest, and humiliation isn’t the same as humility. Humility, keeping humble, is about knowing that you’re not inherently better or worse than any other person. Humiliation is feeling like garbage.
      2. Think of the opposite. “You can’t feel happy because someone somewhere else has it better.” Silly, right? Someone else might have just won a marathon or beat a world record, but that shouldn’t diminish your right to be proud of your own smaller accomplishments or heck, just to be happy doing nothing in particular.
      3. The thing making you feel bad might be no biggie to someone else, sure, but you’re not _them,_ you’re _you._ Everyone has different levels of tolerance when it comes to suffering, and it often fluctuates as you get more experience in life, though not always. Getting screamed at might be unremarkable for one person and trigger an anxiety attack in someone else. Neither person is better or worse than the other, they just have different tolerance levels. This one helped me the most personally, understanding “bad” traits like sensitivity as being part of a spectrum, inherently neutral, and part of myself to be mindful of rather than an enemy has really helped me curb my emotional self-flagellation.
      4. If you can, when you catch yourself saying stuff like that to yourself, respond with something like “oh yeah? Watch this” or “can’t tell me what to do, scrub” and let yourself process the sh*tty thing that happened to you. The attitude might break you out of your guilty mindset, even if you don’t end up processing the thing right then and there, disrupting the “you can’t feel like that” thoughts can at least derail your rumination.
      If you want/need a channel recommendation for working on wounds from childhood and teen years, Patrick Teahan is awesome. He uploads shorts and posts community posts frequently that make you think about how you were treated when you were younger and how those experiences may be influencing current behavior and insecurities. It helps that he’s a professional in his field and compassionate to boot, having worked through his own wounds.
      I struggle with guilt a lot, and that thought still floats around my head sometimes, but challenging the thoughts has helped. I don’t hate myself outright anymore, I’m more compassionate when I talk about and to myself, and I recognize a lot of my flaws as unresolved emotional trauma responses rather than traits of an inherently awful person. I hope I could help in some way, even a year after your original comment.

All they see is their little princess suddenly detouring into something they never knew was even humanly possible. To them, I think it may sound like you are asking them to believe you are a giraffe. I know that sounds bonkers, but you are breaking their entire understanding of reality, and pretending that's just totally NBD. Can you really not see how that would be heartbreaking and confusing for your parents? If you started up with your giraffe phase when you started hanging out with your giraffe friend, I could absolutely see how they would think this was something that friend coaxed you into doing.

      I'm in the process of doing something similar. I'm the oldest of 9, 10 including myself. I was raised as a piece of property up until about 13 when I started to make my own choices. I invested myself into the furry and LGBT community. I told my parents I wanted to be a girl instead of a man. My parents berated me constantly about it. They mocked my hobbies and tore down both my sexual interests and gender identity. Every time I go to see my siblings, they constantly tell me stories about how any choice they want to make is immediately shut down, much like mine as a child. They aren't given free will in that household. I've sjnce moved away from my parents and have been taking my siblings into my household instead, where I slowly readjust them to the idea of control and choice. Many of my siblings have followed me into the furry community because of the welcoming nature of the fandom. To this day I'm still hesitant to go through gender change surgeries, not because I can't afford them but because I'm afraid of what my parents would think.

      Parents that feel entitled to their kids time and trust will often end up with kids who RIGHTFULLY don't trust them and spend as little time with them as possible.
      Of course you want to know where your kids are and that they are safe, even when they are adults. I still text my mom what I'm doing and where I am, I'm 20, but I do it because I want to.

      It’s when a parent is insecure and needs to feel like they are in control and above their child, so they set up a scenario where you can never win and they will always be right.
      If you think that’s how the world works you may not be wrong, but that doesn’t mean it’s any less horrible, especially to do to a child, especially to do to your child.
      Being a parent and having a child is not a political system, it is a relationship, which two people build together. The relationship dynamics can change depending on how many siblings you have and how many parents, but the relationship is still between one of your parents and you. Completely disrespecting and invalidating the person you were trying to teach and prepare for life is not A good way to have your child talk to you after they moved out. It is not helping your child and it is only serving you a selfish need to feel like you’re in control. People might do this by accident, I don’t Assume malice of every adult who may not know how to speak to their child however it’s still harms their development. Promote unhealthy thinking of themselves and others, convincing them they could never do anything right, that they will never be mature enough to send beside you and they will never be respected sitting beneath you.

HOWEVER if youre a fucking cunt and simply view abortion as a form of contraception you should be abortet post nataly.

      My parents did a pretty good job of teaching me how to think for myself, making logical choices, etc. It seems like the normal is closer to total control when It comes to parenting these days. I've known far too many that think they are bad parents if they don't investigate and sniff out every single little thing their kids are doing 24/7. Their justification is simply how else will we know when our children have problems...
      Ok believe me on this one, try building trust, use actual communication, and above all else allow them a say at the very least in what happens with their own life. Let them make choices on their own and let them experience the consequences of poor choices (with reason of course, no silver in outlets) and help them get back up afterwards. Explain where they went wrong or why it happened if needed, so without judgement because it's a learning experience not punishment. Accept the fact they are going to do stupid things from time to time just as you did and general speaking they will be comfortable and willing to come to you with the important problems on their own seeking advice because they don't know what to do themselves.
      My parents don't always agree with my choice, I've certainly made some very foolish choices, but I've always gone to them when I'm stuck and just can't figure out what to do and yes I've gone to them even when it involved things I'd much rather take to my grave. That's because I trust them enough to be more concerned with my well being rather than fixated on my stupidity that got there.

She overlooked so much casual bullying between me and my siblings that I thought whacking each other in the head with sticks was normal sibling behavior until I was in my teens.
    By comparison, my father's concept of a 'punishment' [for bad grades] was to tape a 100$ bill above my desk and inform me that if I got above a C average I could have it. I had severe issues focusing in school and having a solid goal really helped me focus and get my stuff together. He also took me out to parks so I could practice playing the flute without people looking at/staring at me.
    Later down the line we found out I have ADHD and autism [both undiagnosed when living with my mother] and that was why I had trouble socializing. When I brought this up to my mom she went on a half an hour long tangent about 'autism symptoms' and how I couldn't possibly have it because I can [barely] function in social situations. She's also tried to convince me that he lied to get money for my disabilities. Meanwhile, my dad and I have had several long chats detailing out social situations and how I should respond to people.

They even went to far as to not send him any Christmas gifts, but send everyone else in the family one, needless to say, we returned them and wouldn't open them until there was one for my brother too.

    As an abuse victim who has had a hard time accepting I’m being abused these videos make me feel a bit better weirdly, it’s like yeah, this stuff isn’t normal and it’s not ok that my mom berates me and has wanted me to be responsible for all my younger siblings since I was 11. I’m getting out soon and I’ve gone back and forth on it since I don’t want my siblings to lose the cushion I provide by taking the brunt of the abuse, but I know if I can get out I’ll be able to help them out too. I hope that I can one day get my parents to respect me and use my pronouns/name, it would be nice to have a good relationship with my parents.

Their parents used their child's information like a paycheck, collecting money in order to do harm to their child who moved away. I've still yet to prove in a court of law that my parents have been committing identity theft for years, so my parents were able to collect every single one of my stimulus checks and all my tax returns for the past 6 years.

Worst thing I can't forgive my mom for, after staying overnight at my boyfriend's house when I was told not to, the only rebellion I ever did, (note my brother has been to jail before and they got him out) she threaten to kick me out and get angry because she felt like she couldn't discipline me because I was depressed and could commit suicide.
    she has memory problems now and probably doesn't even remember that. I'm trying to distance myself but it's hard when our lives are tangled together so much. sorry to vent, it just hurts so much sometimes.

After finding out what was going on, via my sibling taking notice, my mom told me that it was all in my head.

I realized being trans (masc) isn't "sometimes I don't want to have boobs" or even about passing.

    Thank you so much for these videos, knowing I'm not the only one dealing with parents like those (although mine are definitely better in many ways) really helps when I'm feeling down after interacting with them.
    I feel like ranting a little bit, so sorry for anyone who's searching for funny comments. I feel so angry and helpless living with them. The only people from my closer family that I actually like are my grandparents' dog and my sister. The worst thing is, that my sister doesn't see these problems in our family and therefore unintentionally hurts my feelings sometimes, since she sees my parents doing it. When I was younger I always thought my mum was the "bad one" in our family, since she had a mental condition and was doing really messed up things when I was like 10 years old. But even though it was really traumatizing and she still isn't the best mum (she talks a lot about me behind my back, tells me that she supports my career choice, but also talks with my grandma about how she's disappointed) she isn't the worst one in the family and I actually pity her. My dad is more to blame, which is awful because when I was younger I treated my mum like the villain and my dad like this perfect, amazing person. He has always seemed like a perfect dad- says a lot of dad jokes, buys stuff for me and my sister, seems like the "cool dad", but only recently have I realized that he also messed up our family quite a lot. Since I remember, I can't recall a single moment when he actually looked like he cared about my mum. I don't even remember them holding hands or hugging. He also turns everything into a joke. My insecurities. My mum's insecurities. My sister's insecurities. My career choice. All the things that hurt. He never asked about our feelings or expressed his, the exception being anger. He was angry yesterday and almost rode over my sister's foot with the car, a minute later he almost did the same to me. I just hate him. But I also love him because he's my dad. And it sucks. He's also homophobic, he watches conservative youtubers and tv channels which often spread hurtful messages. I just hate this family and I want to move out asap. Thankfully I'll leave this year and I hope my sister will be okay.
    I'm sorry if it made someone feel bad, I just really needed to rant since there has been a lot of emotional weight on my shoulders recently. And I know it's not really the best place for it, but I didn't know where else to write it. Hope you'll have a nice day and love u all

      I hope you've made it out by now. I regard moving out of my mother's house to be by far the best mental health decision I've ever made, rivalled only by the complete cutting of contact with her shortly thereafter. Best of luck out there in the "real world", friendo. And I hope your sister eventually realizes her mistakes.

    It's places like this that helped me realize the bad situations I've had with my parents. It wasn't until seeing these crazy conversations like this and hearing that it isn't okay, to understand that I'm not in the wrong in feeling mistreated. Because it was happening my entire life and it's considered 'normal' behavior to the others around me, that you're not even aware that it's possible to not feel like you shouldn't exist. Sometimes it takes one person to say "that's messed up..." to change your reality.

Then maybe they'd have known what they were doing was unacceptable, and possibly illegal, and would have treated me like a human being!

One of my jobs was receiving and sorting requests from people for a visit or materials, and there was one house we had to blacklist because some creep from f Florida would send these requests in for them to 'check up on them' and would sometimes call us with a sob story about how the mom living there was unwell and he was worried about her daughter.

    The "I'm the only one on your side/that could love you" is such an effective gaslighting method. My mum started it with me extremely young, as long as my dad was around it wasn't effective but it planned the seeds. Then he passed away and she easily build upon that. She'd push everyone out of my life she could and anyone that showed me any kindness just 'pitied me' or felt obliged or was doing her a favour and secretly hated me. Which were already the minority since who fights through being told not to interact with someone's child? (Grandma and one of my dad's sisters in my case.)
    Even though I got away from her at 18, I was isolated because I kept that believe, only people breaking through that were those using the same tactics and landed me in a few very abusive relationships, one nearly killing me. I was 28, twenty-freaking-eight, when someone finally broke through that. Having seen herself in my mother's public and private venting about me. I doubt she realises she probably saved me life and definitely the quality of life. The thoughts still nag (heck, I keep thinking my uncle hates having to spend time with me, it's so strong atm I think I need to voice it to my aunt) but at least they're not crippling my whole life anymore.
    And the shit that came to light reconnecting with my dad's sister... I have so many regrets towards my grandmother which I can never make up for. My aunt and I are close now, she's helped me a ton as well. It's so easy for parents as well, she just told my aunt I didn't wanna sleep over anymore and told me my aunt no longer wanted me to sleep over... who questions that? Even her own mother didn't since I suspect the same trick was used.
