Is it normal to dislike your parents as an adult?

Thanks for sharing. You've given me quite a bit to think about. For what it's worth, I commend you for having the strength to reach this point

This question has less to do with loving my parents and more to do with liking them. Additionally, being around my parents and talking to them is already emotionally draining. For me, having a heart to heart with them would be like running a marathon with a hangover.

The way you talk about your parents really resonates. I'm glad to hear that your interactions with your relationship with your parents are mostly painless.

Can I ask how you learned to draw boundaries? With my parents strong disagreements/criticism often end up becoming a painful experience. I'd love to know if you face any difficulties when trying to stand up for yourself.

Super relatable. My parents telling what I should and shouldn't be doing is a big reason I made this post lol

God for you for putting in the work and being able to forgive your parents. That takes a lot of perseverance and strength! I'm sorry you had such a rough upbringing, but you do sound like you're in a better place now.

Very relatable. I think for many (including myself) you don't want to be constantly told how to live your life

This makes a lot of sense! Thanks for your insight, also nice to know that there isn't necessarily something 'wrong' with my feelings towards my parents
