Toxic parents

I don't have a great relationship with my parents and really struggle with craving what I don't have. I feel lost with no support or adult guidance. I thought they would be better grandparents, but it seems they will never change. I would give anything to have a mother I could go for coffee with and offload. Has anyone been in the same situation and can offer advice on how you accepted things wouldn't change and stop yearning for what you'll never have? Thanks for reading.

I’m going through the same with my mum 😔 she’s incredibly toxic and despite trying to make her see where she’s going wrong, she doesn’t want to know. It’s not her fault. I know it’s really hard that she’s not around, but the way I look at it, I’m protecting my son from picking up on that toxic energy and I think that’s the most important thing. It’s tough when you want someone to behave the way they should do but they don’t, and you have my sympathy ❤️ I hope that one day they come through for you and be who you need them to be 🙂

Hey! I have the exact same with my parents unfortunately - no matter how much I point it out, it always turns into my fault. I’ve finally accepted they will never change but it doesn’t stop the frustration and upset. 4 years in currently and feeling like my ‘village’ doesn’t exist x

I’ll happily adopt you! 😘 but on a serious note you ever need to speak to someone or hang out Message me x
