My mom isn’t a bad mother. She is caring and sweet, but sometimes, she tends to hurt me and my brother. She threatens to hurt us when we do something wrong. She compares us to other children. She gets angry at me for something I didn’t do, even when SHE is the one to blame. I always get high marks on tests, but she always says I didn’t do my best, even when I did. “You didn’t try hard enough.” Which always hurt. When I would cry, she’d discourage me. “Don’t cry, it isn’t something to cry about!” “That’s such a stupid reason to cry.” But really, crying is healthy. Sometimes when I ask her a question, she suddenly bursts out angry. “That’s a stupid question.” “Are you serious?” “Do you need to even *ask?”* Which now scares me to even talk to her. Sometimes I get upset, and tend to stay quiet. Which my mom will NEVER understand. She gets mad at me for being quiet then scolds me.

The worst part is that as adults, we’re supposed to “understand” and “forgive” our parents because otherwise, it’s “bad for us”. It’s so unfair that after being f**ked over by people that had no idea what the f*ck they were doing, there are no repercussions for them, and all the hard word required to heal is left on us.. 🙄

Every child deserves a parent but not every parent deserves a child

[owenentropy]

My parents: “why aren’t you strong like (older brother)? Why can’t you do a day of hard work?” Also never keeping promises

[sweetofu]

That moment when you realize you've experienced all of these.

5:31 an empty promise "if you tell the truth i won't be mad"

[JessicaCarrico]

My mom said that one day she would just run away and never come back so many times, that one day I just got fed up and answered that she should stop making empty promised and disappear already.
The first few times, I was terrified of her doing it, but she kept saying it over the years and never did anything towards running away. It eventually stopped making me afraid and started to make me feel annoyed.
I'm an adult now, I have my own place and I've talked to my mom about the many things she did during my childhood that affected me deeply. In the beginning she played the victim card, cried and claimed that everyone was always against her. But eventually (after multiple conversations about it over the years) she started apologizing and seems to really regret her actions. I don't think she ever thought those things would affect me, but I guess that me ending up in a hospital from a suicide attempt a few years back opened her eyes. She's not a bad person, she just has a lot of psychological problems of her own and I think she really had a hard time seeing how her actions affected me negatively.

My parent does some toxic acts but overall, not toxic. Im so sorry to those who have to suffer with a bad parent because they are still holding on to negative behaviors. I will pray for you. This is why im quite happy with mine as they are. Ur life will get better man. If no one acts like they love you... Im here for you. Email me, text me, I dont really mind. I can talk for hours if u want bro. If not, I hope ur life gets better 😖😊

I just realized that i hate myself because of my parents, not because I am ugly and stupid.

[lolitapunk]

My parents made me feel like i wasn't suppose to exist, compared me to other kids, asked my why am i the way i am, and told me they would leave me when i was a little kid, but they always apologized and then did those things again, and now i understand that they were toxic

[angelvu]

this actually hurts to hear, because all of them are true. worst part is, my older brother helped them do this to me.

[knucklesfieryheart]

My parents are toxic and don’t even realize it. My “dad” will say demeaning things to me about my physical appearance. Like I used to talk to my mom about losing weight and she tells my dad damn near everything. So one day I was talking about it and he said “You ain’t gon never lose weight” and that hurt me. He’s a shit talker too and wonders why I don’t want to be near him or hang out with him. And my mom talks about the private things about me. Things she or anyone else has no business talking about. My mom will make me feel like I’m an idiot if I don’t know something or get mad at me for not knowing something that neither of them has taught me, like filling out my FAFSA. I’ve never done that before she’s always done it. So how am I supposed to know what to put on here? Or she’ll make me feel stupid because i suck at math. They really love making me feel like there’s something wrong with me too, my “sister” likes to join in on it as well. They’re both going in a retirement home and when I move somewhere far, I’m not coming back.

Me, already knowing that my parents and grandmother are toxic
_So that’s where my problems came from_

[SpicyEspresso]

I’ll be honest, my parents are not monsters. I’m very thankful to have a family, cuz most kids never had or have a family. But I wish my mother and father were a bit more sympathetic with my childhood and feelings. My dad always said that I acted and behaved better than my older brother and my mother never kept her promises. My dad worked all the time when I was a kid. My brother would play with his boy friends and I’d be in the house playing inside. (There were no female or sensible friends). I even asked my mom to play with me once in while. The response she’d give me is: “go play with your brother” or “I’m busy.” I kept all of my dolls by my side and watched kid shows a lot. I still keep those dolls and watch those films at the age of 18. If you’re reading this and you can relate, don’t rely on that toxic person being your success or happiness. Find a hobby or a friend that keeps you happy and/or successful. I hope everyone is staying safe. 😊

I don't know why I'm crying watching this. Maybe cause most of these applies to me a lot, and make me wish I had a happy childhood without my parents or just never exist at all. Thank you for making this video, it makes me feel that there are people who understand me.
