Ways Your Parents Still Trigger You
You hate their outdated view of you
You just feel like when your parents look at you, they still see the eight-year-old girl who fell off the swings and cried very loudly, who used to cut her doll’s hair, who used to get scared at sleepovers, and who had her heart shattered by her boyfriend when she was 13 years old. They don’t acknowledge all of the personal work you’ve done and all of the progress you’ve made. And that makes you very mad.
