[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In most instances with parents it's not a 2-sided story. Like what? One side was/is a child and the other side an adult. It's like saying abusive situations have 2 sides: they do not! One is a perpetrator and the other is a victim! If the perpetrators paint themselves as victims, it doesn't make it 2 sides! It's just delusion, rewriting of history and inability to take accountability. In the end OP, you don't owe your parents anything. If they're awful, they're awful, if you disappear from the face of the Earth, there's nothing they can do. What your sibling does is up to her. [/quote]

This is true for some cases.  Other times one side just finds the other annoying and insufferable, or there's an argument and both sides are too stubborn to reconcile.   Sometimes mental illness or addition is a factor.  Etc., etc..  It's ok for not all situations to be the same, the black and white thinking of some of you is so puzzling sometimes, why is it so important to you that everything be the same?  Is it a lack of confidence?[/quote]
