Look, with very few exceptions no one sets out with the intention of being a shitty abusive parent. A lot of shitty parents think they're doing it right. A lot of shitty parents think they're doing their best. A lot of shitty parents think that abusive shit they do is not really abusive and for the greater good of their child.
A lot of shitty parents love their kids, and would die for them, but they can still be abusive and shitty parents because they do shit they learned from their parents and don't pause a moment to think they may be doing it wrong because "I love my kid, abusive parents don't love their kids, so I can't be an Abusive Parent, not me, I'm good". A lot of shitty parents have their good moments, their good sides, and their kids can love them for it and then be doubly hurt when the good moment ends and things are shitty again.
Shitty parents are complicated people, the kids they raise are complicated people, and human relationships as a whole are a complex hot mess. There is not one right or wrong way to respond to abuse or choose how to handle the relationship to a shitty parent. No we don't wanna hear how you'd personally handle it in our shoes. You're not in our shoes. STFU.
BTW this is not some weird defense of shitty and abusive parents but for Christ's sake, this attitude that Shitty Parents - either real or fictional - are monsters out of a scary story who are contractually obliged to be shitty 100% of the time, all around, in every aspect of their lives, is actually harmful. It's untrue. It's stupid. It will lead kids of Shitty Parents to think that well, THEIR parents are not 100% evil and dastardly all the time, therefore they're not Actually Abusive, I must be exaggerating.
Shitty parents are not old school Disney villains breaking into song about how they love to do evil deeds to hurt their own children. They're people. Learn to tell the two things apart, for fuck's sake.
#this is where my mom is#i think this is an alternate form of cycles of abuse too#bc like. you try to do better than your parents#and you DO!#you're BETTER than your parents! you don't throw things at your kids!#and they're better than their parents. who were better than their parents#this is what I'm afraid of honestly#that the best I'll be able to do as a parent is Better Than My Mom
I’m not anti-technology, I just think there’s something deeply sick about a society where robots make art and children work in factories.
The golf links lie so near the mill That almost every day The laboring children can look out And see the men at play.

We’re gonna take down Forge. I’m gonna show Marlamin and the Elk tribe they were fools to let me go.
I love that they love each other. I love that Ed knows it’s gonna be painful for her to go see her ex and face another round of rejection and loss of family. I love that he waits for her outside, patiently, and has a song ready to cheer her up. I love that I actually believe they care about one another deeply and that the move takes the time to show their friendship.
Here, have a completely out of context meme from my dnd session tonight
Like my dudes the weird anti-intergenerational friendships thing is so not my experience of fandom like why would you miss out on so many hilarious wine aunts?
I am so happy to be people’s wine aunt I have real life practical experience of this I can dispense advice and cuddles and rants about the patriarchy with the best of them.
But if you’re uncomfortable with me being 40 that’s fine! Please go enjoy other parts of tumblr 😁
#people talk about like. the adult who traumadumps on a teenager#but i knew adults in fandom when i was a teen and none of them did that#and when i became an adult most of my friends who were teenagers were people i knew BEFORE adulthood?#i still don't think i trauma dumped on any of them but like#it's a FRIENDSHIP
