[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Whyyy are they like this? Are we just supposed to accept it? I feel like I can’t do it. What books should I read?[/quote] Emotional immaturity, lack of self-reflection, mental health issues-such as depression and personality disorders Toxic Parents-helpful, but they tell you to confront. Didn't go well in my mom's case so now I just set boundaries by doing, not by saying Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents-helps you mourn the fact you don't have a nurturing parent and learn to detach. They nailed it with the whole "healing fantasy" you have to give up where you think if you do or say the right thing the person will magically treat you well. I find this all helpful, but I still vent here and I still get upset. It just doesn't get me as upset as it used to. [/quote]
