That might have been true when the parents were all about leaving a better world for their children. In current "F* you, I got mine" generation, this doesn't exactly hold. They've literally sold out their grand-grandchildren (who are not yet born) to make life more comfy for themselves. [/quote]

We live is a very specific point and time and our parents are as much a victim to their environment as we are.

Yes, the trauma you experienced then and the anxiety it’s causing you is real. However, you have access to language and therapies that they didn’t have access too.

Rather than blame the previous generation, focus on healing yourself. I. That process comes the ability to empathize with your parents and begin to see them as a complex humans with strengths and weaknesses.

From there, you can CHOOSE the relationship you want with them and take control of making it happen. [/quote]
