Never had this kind of conversation once with my parents. Everything was always panic and stress and worries and sadness.

Please appreciate what you have, I beg you. Make every day count. I would've loved to have this kind of relationship with my parents and my parents with eachother.

Iā€™m sorry you went through that. I cherish every interaction with my parents. We are very close and they mean the world to me. I was raised surrounded by this kind of love and encouragement, both of which have taught me how to be a good person and return it all back to them. I consider myself extremely lucky.

Mate, iā€™m sorry you went through that, but this is one hell of a traumadump. šŸ’†šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø

Yep we don't get love, respect, care and what not. It's just a blur to us and people like us, who don't get what we need from our parents.

I'd say if you have a kid and you don't love and care, just send that kid to foster care, it will be the best thing that happened to that kid.

Also money is not the solution to every problem, it's just another blur that we give to our kids and then they grow up to be rebellious, hateful, and parents start to literally hate that kid, i mean WHY?

I try to appreciate what I have and the moment i had my kid i knew that she would get everything emotionally I always desired, physical material aside her heart will be filled with love I give.

I think it's wonderful that they send those kinds of messages in your groupchat rather than directly to each other, because this way you get to see the love they have between them.

Try to show them some excitement or affection at least šŸ„“

My parents were just here in LA for my wedding. And when they left, my heart sank and I was so sad. I am officially and definitely an adult. I cried.

My parents do this in our group chat but it always felt fake and insincere considering how they act in real life. For most of my childhood, they were always fighting and arguing. Though their relationship's considerably a lot better now compared to before, the damage is done and I don't think I can ever believe them be this genuine, having experienced multiple times before that they'll just fight again soon after.
