I just had a kid of my own and I’m finding some feelings of resentment towards mom.
Like, there were some times where I didn’t receive the supervision I needed, or where I wasn’t taught certain life skills (because she was so busy with my siblings) and I just can’t imagine letting that happen with my baby.
Did you ever feel this way towards your parents when you had me? If so, how did you deal with it?
Thanks Pop.
Just to clarify, your feelings of resentment are valid no matter what. And you can and should address those feelings. I would just advise that if you want to address the subject with your parents directly, try not to come in too hot. If you have a therapist or someone you trust, maybe run your approach by them first and see if they have any helpful feedback. Best of luck!
Excellent advice. Thank you :)
