Like…sad crying? No. My parents were…pretty progressive considering their own family dynamics and political opinions 😅 now, crying because I was being punished? For sure. I heard a lot of “stop crying or I’ll give you something to cry about” which was usually followed by me crying more just to see what would happen…typically being spanked 😂
I was beat by my dad almost every other day once he got home from work because my mom would tell him how “bad” I was while he was gone. The worst it’s ever gotten was when he smacked me so hard in the face he knocked me out. It was in front of my mom and she didn’t even do anything. I was about 10 or 11.
I’ll put it better, I won’t blame my mother, because I understand her and I love her. I’ll continue to encourage her how I can. I was speaking personally, there may be cases in which there should be blame and even legal repercussion on the basis of undiagnosed (but harmfully symptomatic) child-rearing practices. Thanks for coming to me defense OP, and 24 I totally hear you, I criticize my mom too sometimes but that’s my lil baby boo fr 🤤 moomoo 🤰I get mad then remember like damn wait she’s moo
