[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP- there are a lot of worse things than growing up in a yelling household.  My dad yelled at me and called me names growing up and acted quite child like in general.  I was always able to look over his flaws because I thought at the end of the day he would "always" be there for me.  Something unforgivable with him happened when I was 21 and I realized he would not be there for me and that destroyed our relationship.

I yell at my kids more than I should.  I expect them to get close to perfect grades and if they don't watch out.  I suppose it is because when I was a young adult I realized that I didn't have the emotional support that I should have had growing up and I had to be very self-reliant and I want my kids to be prepared for anything.

No one is perfect.  Were your parents more good than bad?  At the end of the day, would they really be there for you?  If so, consider yourself lucky.[/quote]

Why are you telling OP how to feel? Your experience has nothing to do with hers.[/quote]
