[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, mine were both completely checked out in their own ways. Dad was a teacher, coach, etc. and put all his time into that. Mom was an alcoholic. My sister and I were treated like trophies - only recognized for the things we accomplished and how we made the family look good - good students, good athletes, seemingly well behaved. It's really done a number on both of us. My sister has never examined what happened and worked through it. She's a narcissist who raised her kids exactly the way we were raised (literally has the same rules we had growing up). I feel really bad for her kids. I married someone like my dad but somehow worse and am now divorced, doing therapy regularly, and working on being a better parent to my kids. [/quote] This sounds like a lot of todays parents.
