The parents in these situation often don’t have the emotional or social skills to do more or even realize that there are options other than be angry.

The parents are dysfunctional people churning out the next generation of dysfunctional people. It’s an intergenerational cycle that is nearly impossible to break.

I’m not blaming these people, but if you grow up in a dysfunctional functional environment it is on the level of a miracle to break the cycle.

You don’t know what’s wrong or where to look for help and in my case I was even proud of my parentification for making me “strong and resilient” while minimizing the bad things as a coping mechanism.
