[quote=Anonymous]I'm interested in this topic. Is it really a paradox? I get that either path forward will include some pain. Is that what you mean by paradox? I do think emotionally unavailable parents could end up apologizing. People are able to grow and change. I think some of the reason I don't bring up some childhood pain issues associated with unmet emotional needs is that I don't want my parents to feel bad. I've long been in a role of trying to protect their feelings. Is the paradox that either I leave that alone and sit in pain by myself or that I bring it up and still have pain? Potentially with the latter path healing can open up? I don't know. I just recently started therapy so thinking about this is still new to me.[/quote]
