You may blame your parents for your problems
Through my mid twenties, I blamed my parents for anything in my life that wasn’t going my way. I said that the trauma of the infidelity messed with my self-esteem and ability to go after my goals. I said it made me unable to love. But, around my late twenties an important thing occurred to me: even if other people mess me up, it’s up to me to fix me. Nobody else will. And blaming others for the fact that my life isn’t going the way I want it won’t make my life go the way I want it.
