    As someone who had to endure shit parents as a child: They don’t.

    They will rather go win gold in mental gymnastics than to allow any form of self-awareness from developing, too.

        Jokes on them, I never developed the emotional capacity needed to be able to be emotionally blackmailed, thanks to their shit parenting.

        “Oh so my mom wants to jump off a bridge if I don’t come visit her? Well whatever floats her boat, that’s far from the worst idea she ever had.”
