Parents you can tell anything to and be heard without judgement, or a list of all your failings in life.

Parents you’re not afraid to tell that you tried for something, just in case you fail and it will be used against you for the rest of your life?

Just to clarify, I love my parents and know they love me back, but 10 minutes is literally the limit of co-existence

    Parents are humans with their own flaws and backstories. They’ve had (presumably) 20 years of the worlds bullshit flung at them before you entered the picture.

    This sort of sentiment is fine to say parent to parent but parent to child it is a massive cop out.

    “I had to put up with this bullshit, so you do to” is terrible parent.

    It’s not acceptable for a parent to forward the world’s bullshit onto their child.
