That succinctly described my relationship with my family of origin. Thank you so much for putting it into words I can digest slowly and share with others. I have chosen to parent and live differently. It is helpful to understand why that is incredibly hard and work to not feel that intense sense of shame RAP parenting instills.
Information that I have acquired from STRONGWILLED has reframed major aspects of my life. I don’t look at the world the same way that I used to. I also don’t look at the majority of my life the same way that I used to. This has been one of the most productive forms of healing that I have encountered in decades.

yes! I think understanding where the shame comes from (not because we are bad) is such a helpful part in recovery!

Beth this comment made me tear up! Would you be OK with me sharing it (anonymous or not)? You can totally say no 🥰
Yes of course!
