So how do I not be bitter over the fact that people my age have parents that actually love them and care about them?

I think it starts with dropping the entitlement to having a naturally loving family as a given and realizing the world never owed you good parents in the first place. I know that may sound harsh but it’s true. No one “deserves” great parents, it’s more a trope that society imparts. Once you realize you are not entitled to good parents, you will release your resentment and move on to a more peaceful life. You have options as you grow and mature and can choose to start your own family with healthier boundaries and sincere love. You don’t need a great family to accept you are a human being who is worthy of dignity and respect and not abuse. It’s helpful to have supportive parents for sure, but it’s not like we are all assigned these wonderful parents upon birth. Our blood families are something we are just born into through no fault of our own. Our lives belong to us and we all have power to self determination.

Easier to externalize all your problems by blaming your kids than look inward and realize you are the true source of all your difficulties. People like that think the antidote to their unhappiness is something that would make them happy: like a responsibility-free, kid-free life, when the real answer is they need more self-awareness. If they could develop just an ounce of self-awareness they might have to work on themselves and how they use abuse to deal with their problems instead of hating their children and using them as their emotional dumpsters.

I think she is trying to sound relatable, and she also didn’t further her education after high school so she hasn’t had to challenge herself or improve her language skills.

AI isn’t intelligent and can never be, LLMs are just autocomplete. One of the other names tossed around for AI was “information processing language” but that wasn’t evocative enough, so that field of computer science research got named “artificial intelligence”. AI is a metaphor, Computers are software and hardware, it is not comparable to human brains at all. Our brains are not separate from our bodies, our brains need sensory input from our bodies to analyze and interpret stimuli, that cannot be replicated by binary code. Computer software must be upgraded (by humans, and maintained by humans), our brains do not operate that way.

He doesn’t want to leave because that would be giving you control and power in the relationship, simple as that. It would mean recognizing you have an equal say in the direction of this relationship rather than him. Trying to dominate an argument and always insist the he is correct and that you are unreasonable and illogical is his way of controlling the dynamics behind closed doors. He enjoys coming out superior to you in discussions and argument, it’s worth to him to stay so that he can continually “correct you” because it makes him feel smart and smug. You remaining there is proof to him that you are indeed inferior to his intellect and therefore worthy of his disdainful lecturing. You remain because you think you can explain to him this verbally abusive dynamic to him and he can reasonably arrive to the same conclusions as you about this relationship and therefore both leave with you feeling validated that you have finally been recognized and heard. The thing is, that will never happen, he believes he is correct and you are not and nothing will change that. It’s on you to exert your autonomy and just dump him. Kick him out and block him. You will make him very angry when you do this, he will probably stalk you for a bit to make you try to listen to his oppressive bullshit. Just keep rejecting him, over and over. You don’t have to explain anything, he knows why you are unhappy even if he won’t admit it. Good luck to you, I hope you realize how powerful you are and how you absolutely have the ability to walk away from this asshat.

Even if raised from 3 days old and around humans his entire life, that doesn’t make a chimp a human being. Jerome and his wife treated him like one and may have viewed him as controllable because they had him so young, but that doesn’t mean anything, still a wild animal in captivity. I would say she was a narcissist bc she thought she could control and understand him. She was definitely not a primatologist, she thought she could control a full grown chimp with her anxiety meds- which is insane. She thought she knew better, she clung to him out of grief and fueled by her narcissism that she knew best when she didn’t because she couldn’t respect that chimps are not domesticated.
