      Be better, fix it. Well now I see what all the fuss is about.

      Your upbringing, the little I know about it, reminds me of my dad. His parents just kind of let him go. They never went to his sporting events or supported him much. He laments it to this day. You gotta be there for your kids. Just being there is so important.

      Ftr, they supported me a lot, but they didn't punish me much. I honestly don't think they could have. I was very rebellious.

      I was also unpunishable. If they took something away, I would never use it again to take that leverage away. It was really quite extreme.

      Ugh, this is hard for me to admit but I threatened to kill my mother in her sleep when I was 14. 🤦‍♀️ She should have punched me in the face.

      In my defensive my mother is crazy emotional and often irrational. I’m a lot like her. 😞 We’d have epic battles.

      Mine is too. We'd have epic battles too but we're very different. Only a few months ago, she said to me 'I'm not like you. I have feelings.' O__O

          😱 My mom has said similar things to me. My mom is mushy and dramatic. She’s cries constantly. I respond to tension with anger. I can be cold and harsh. If I cry, I prefer to do it alone. I have softened over time though.

          But my mom has an evil streak that’s terrifying. lol My husband is gentle and kind. He’s learned to fight after 13 years with me though. I’m proud of him when he stands up to me. lol
