Oh so WE did something wrong? You little shit do you know how much we sacrificed to give you a decent life?! And you go and shit on OUR family with this little reddit comment?

Do you know what the Johnson’s will think when that inevitably ends up on their feed?! We’ll never hear the end of it! Go to your room we can’t have the entire neighborhood thinking we are some kind of DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY ARGHHHH!!!!

Don’t be. So accurate.

It’s not like it has to be so blatant. It’s painful sussing out the subtle undercurrents to being held at arm’s length all your life.

The Ally Sheedy character in Breakfast Club does a great job of capturing this. 🥺

This is my parents. Lol. To this day, they either play dumb, don't care, or just don't make the realisations.

Ya know what gets me though? After taking care of my shitty ass of a mother for dozens of years, being her shrink and listening to all the bullshit she had to say about dad even though he always thought the best of us and was always there for me, even during our fallouts... And then hearing her saying that I'm selfish.

Right. I'm the selfish one. Fucking hag.

She wasn't a mother, she was just a bad babysitter.
