[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh, well all of you think so negatively about your moms. It's just part of your culture.  It's  all the rage to bring up made up trauma, anxiety producing personalities, yadda yadda yadda. Your parents were fine,  and you know it. Can't WAIT to see your kids in 25 years. Save us all.

Was it fine when my mom passed out drunk on the sofa every night for years? Or when she told me she wished she had an abortion?[/quote]

That's not fine. But that's not what OP described. This always happens -- someone describes a fairly tolerable-to-most childhood, says they hate their parents because of it, then someone who was raped by their Uncle with their parents' blessing, or forced to sleep outside under the porch with the dogs, or otherwise SERIOUSLY and undeniably abused comes on and posts about how real abuse is.

Yes, PP, your abuse was real. OP's mistreatment seems up for debate.[/quote]

No, you don't get to weigh and judge how someone feels about their experiences. This isn’t a competition and what is 'tolerable' for one person is intolerable to another. Those of us who have survived abuse understand this.[/quote]
