[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None of that seems "whoa, messed up" to me. Sounds like pretty typical imperfect parents. There are lots of little things I could say about my childhood that weren't perfect - everyone can. I don't think any of it impacts me now - obviously my childhood partly shaped who I am for good or for bad but I don't have any "issues". And if I did I would figure they were my issues to own not blame my parents for being human. [/quote]

This exactly.  I am the first pp, and this is why i hate therapy.  I always felt like therapists were looking for someone to blame rather than make me responsible for my issues.   I was finally able to get over my issues from an ex by dealing with it on my own and discussing my issues with a therapist and never bringing up the fact that i blamed my ex for them.

Sorry op, none of what you listed sounds like reasons you guys would have such big issues that you're in couples therapy.  It feels like you're looking for scapegoats to explain your issues.  In the long run, not sure that's the best way to go about it. [/quote]
