For the parents that said the depression meds were “changing” their child. I bet what they really mean is that the child is harder to control because the meds give them a better sense of self. Which of course leads to higher self esteem and boundary setting.

[quinnbell]

Every time someone insinuates that being an adult means i can no longer act childishly, i remember a quote that i believe comes from Henry David Thoreau. "As I grew older, I gave up childish things, such as the fear of being called childish."

[pjwhite]

When a family member comes at me with a long ass text rant I always wait til they run out of shit to say for at least an hour and then respond with "lol". Six of my aunts and cousins will no longer speak to me, they leave my grandmother's house if I show up, and they think it's their idea. It's amazing.

[midoriya_mumble]

Small note on the "you're only a kid once", if you didn't have a childhood like me you can still have that childhood in adulthood. You wanna have dinosaur shaped chicken nuggies for dinner while watching Ben 10 as an adult? Do it. It's healing. You wanna get the finger paints out and create a messy, silly image? Do it. It's fun.

[janemiettinen]

“Your child has had control over you since she was born!” - Yes. Thats called having children. Not furniture.

On the "my child is 8 and cannot read" post my mother had to teach me to read because my teacher failed and gave up. I am autistic with a learning disability and it was a lot worse as a kid. Shed sit with me every night and read me 'the quilt makers gift' helping me with my vowels until I became a reading maniac. I shot up from Pre-K reading levels to college reading level by 3rd grade. I dropped children's picture books in favor of novel series and paleontology/zoology encyclopedias very quickly. Shout out to my mom for being my MVP and always doing her best to advocate for me. Edit: my mom is my best support and most valuable ally in this life. As a mom should be.

[drtaverner]

My ex-wife once complained that my meds were making me "aggressive". I just wasn't putting up with her abusive shit anymore. I'm now divorced and MUCH happier!

[rachelppython]

In terms of having to "be an adult" my dad always said, "you're only young once, but you can be immature forever!" Words to live by.

[maranathaschraag]

My narcissistic SIL told me on more than one occasion that therapy was "making me worse". Apparently saying "no", having and enforcing boundaries, and calling out her BS is "worse" than being a doormat and ATM. she treats her kids the same way. we don't talk anymore....lol

all of these stories are super familiar and/or believable.

[sinandtonic]

I was in an abusive relationship for 4 years. The only reason I got out of it is because my mom casually told me "you can always come home." There's some wholesome content for you all.

[thunderflare]

Ironically, if a devil wanted to divide that family, they'd target the emotionally unstable mess that mother is.

"Family doesn't end in blood, but it doesn't start there either." is probably my favorite life lesson that the show "Supernatural " has taught me.

[dexxus]

Fish Love NEEDS to be taught to kids in primary school. Seriously. The amount of help that being able to distinguish between "person who cares about me" and "exploiter who cares about what i can do for them" is huge for kids to be able to protect themselves, mentally and physically.

[DarkHawkeLP]

That "Beating children for sleeping somewhere not in there bed" Really got my blood pumping. When I was smol I fell asleep on the chair, couch, in the car. All the time. Just like dad! Dad would fall asleep in his chair basically every night while watching something. There is nothing wrong with sleeping or taking a nap when you are comfy somewhere. WTF

[JustASillyReally]

Two sayings I think fit this video;

'The blood of the covenent is stronger than the water of the womb', and 'every child deserves a parent, but not every parent deserves a child'

[Dianasaurthemelonlord]

The entire subreddit is the definition of, "Hey, Guess Who's getting put in a retirement home when you're older?"

[Pebble-With-a-Pen]

truths that can coexist:
1. Being a single mother can be an incredibly difficult experience
2. Being a single mother and/or having a rough parenting experience is not an excuse to harass your children, call them liars/corrupted by satan, etc.

I find it funny how those people bring up the “Honor your father and mother” in an insulting rant, when there’s literally another text which says “do not provoke your children to anger”.

[austin.luther]

My mom has told me for years, "You're not raising kids, you're raising future adults." My partner and I focus on encouraging curiosity and critical thinking, introspection and emotional awareness. We want our daughters to have the tools necessary to grow into self-sustaining functional adults.

We don't teach obedience. We teach trust and respect. Our daughters listen to us because we've demonstrated that we have good reasons for the things we ask of them. And if they have an issue, they can being it up and we'll talk about it.

[Kartoffelkamm]

The person getting harassed by their parents should definitely get that restraining order now.
Speaking of which, a restraining order is kinda like a reverse marriage: "You're such a horrible person, I'll get the government involved so you stay the f*ck away from me."
