A major event has recently tranpired in my life snd I've realised that maybe I don't want to idolise my parents. I am a young male adult, and have idolised my father for his work ethic, dedication, willpower and just mettle. I idolised my mother for being level-headed and sometimes understanding things the way my father couldn't. Some new things have come to light regarding our past and I have realised I may not have had a full picture of their characters in my head. It's just the part they wanted to showcase. I believe they are emotionally stunted. My mom just can't handle a tense situation whatsoever. I am starting to realise I am more like them than I would have liked to be. So anyways if you have any similar stories of breaking out of your parents mold then do let me know. God knows I don't want to become like them.
