[quote=Anonymous]It's good you feel how you feel. It shows you've grown as a person and have finally come to terms with reality. I disagree with the therapy angle -- I know in the US everything needs therapy, but for us, immigrants, negative feelings are a part of life. It's HEALTY to feel negative feelings if the circumstances so require, and there's no need to try to bury them. Your parents were terrible and you've come to see that. Congratulate yourself. The fact that you feel hate is the way for you to process the neglect you've felt for so long (but perhaps couldn't put your finger on) and embrace your resentment. I feel the same about my mother, she's always been a taker and it took me a long time to see that, but I always felt that deep down. Once my kids were teens, I could finally remember what my mom said and did to me at that age and I felt so repulsed, exactly as you say. How could she? What kind of mom does that? Maybe she thought we'll forget as our little kid years? It's interesting when you finally look at them objectively you see how self-centered, arrogant, lacking compassion and really manipulative people they are. [/quote]
