Yeah a lot. Having a child is like having a little slave for them. You can't talk back because they feed you and cloth you which are their basic responsibilities. And these are the people who get confused for why their child doesn’t come to visit them anymore when they are old. 3 reply
or when they're yelling at me and I don't say anything, like if I don't say something it's disrespectful. If I do say something, it's backtalk. what do they want from me? 1 reply
If I breath while my mom talks I’m instantly the most disrespectful and ungrateful child in the world as if she didn’t say that to me multiple times already.
Anyways sometimes things are chill she doesn’t guilt trip me or hit me but I still can’t approach her or talk to her properly bc of trauma 2 reply
it wasn’t disrespectful my mom would complain that I would always flinch and say she isn’t abusive but says good when I say I’m afraid of her while crying it made no sense but yeah reply
Well yeah because in some parents eyes they want you to fear them so you behave and once you get out of line or go against something they say it's a problem reply

my mum: ARE U JUST GOING TO KEEP SILENT AND IGNORE WHAT I SAID???
mum what do u want me to do?????? reply
yea, my dad would quote the bible at me and said that to respect god is to fear god and then said that we had to fear and respect him in the same way. Now that I think about it, he probably has a god complex cause he would compare himself to god and jesus a lot. reply
