But parents aren't putting any responsibility squarely on the children. Parents are basically bowing down to every whim and need of the current narcisstic child and when that same child waltzes out the home with no explanation or contact, parents run after children begging for their return it is not the parents looking at the children with a pointed finger down the nose at the child but the other way round. It is the child who covertly holds the parent hostage with their list of emotional abuse taken completely out of context and thrown in the faces of the very people who love them no matter what. The only people willing to tell the selfish little brats the truth, while the rest of the world gaslight and enables their spoilt, first world, middle-class entitled added that they are the bees k res and deserve nothing more than a life with zero conflict, parents who give you your hearts deepest desires, a life with no struggle and therefore no growth and while you're at it, go and either botox or maim your body in search of flawless perfection which only exists in your head.
Thats what the world is saying, but we your parents are saying, you ARE good enough just as you are. It may not be perfect, but this is who you are and it is better to deal with it than run from it.
>Can you imagine parents putting responsibility for any difficulties in the parent/child relationship squarely on the children?
Yes, especially among estranged parents. Plenty of assholery on both sides of this one.
