Totally agree with these points, but sadly not everybody understands it and usually such toxic parents dont een care how their poor child feels. They are just too busy fighting..
I agree with 6 points. And I am one of these parents that are in a toxic marriage. We are getting a divorce and it has been coming. It's just hard because we have 3 kids together and one of them has down Syndrome and I know it would be better if we divorced.
I come from such a family. And while it is compassion the answer to it all..the key that unshackles one, may I lovingly suggest, take the time you need. The time such pain has, swiftly, been taken from you as a child to understand, internalize and free yourself from the pain. Don’t sweep it under any rug of social acceptance or distraction. Feel and feed that abandoned inner child :) it’s never too late.
This is true, I am going thru it now. Had to go see a Therapist, because my wife decided to put our daughter in the middle. I live in Germany but I am American, laws here are different especially when it comes to property, retirement and Alimony. My wife told our daughter that I am taking the house away and that they will be in the streets. My wife does not understand that there are laws here to cover a divorce. My daughter was put against me, my wife and her boyfriend tell her that I am the bad guy.. My wife told me that she never loved me and only married for our daughter, She has said that she wants me dead and that I have dead in her eyes. Doesn't talk to me at all even when it comes to our daughter.
I think the biggest challenge for parents is not making the mistakes your parents made.
