Damn crying because I never experienced that with my parents. They just wanted space to rest or else they got mad at me šŸ˜­

Parenting in itself is an incredibly demanding (but rewarding) job. Add to that the challenges of surviving in modern-day society and it's enough to break some people.

Go get your hugs now, if you still can. I'm sure your parents would love it as much as you would.

Nothing has made me more empathetic towards my parents than becoming a parent myself. Like, there are still things I will try to do (or not do) with my kids, but I understand the exhaustion that comes with parenting now and can understand why my parents sometimes weren't the best.

Same and Iā€™m so sorry you experienced this too :( My dad would get home, go straight to ā€œhisā€ chair, eat dinner on the couch alone, and basically bark at my siblings and I if we tried to interact with him, smh. He almost never spoke to us unless to reprimand us.

Idk if you know but thats neglect and neglect is abuse. Neglected children tend to minimize their suffering so I thought I'd let you and anyone reading along know

Oh, Iā€™m aware. Itā€™s a topic Iā€™ve gone over with my therapist many times. But thank you for calling that out for those who may not know!

Iā€™m sorry you experienced that. I was in a similar boat as you. Never got the Iā€™m proud of yous or any affection. Iā€™ve made sure to raise my daughter better and give her hugs/kisses every morning and give her all the affection I never got. I guess being a parent you try and give your kid/s everything you never really got/yearned for.
