There's a lot of bitterness in what you wrote, gondath. How much of this comes from personal experience? How's your relationship with your parents?
It was the most liberating day of my life when I realized that my parents did absolutely the best with me that they knew how to do. They were the best parents they could be. I didn't come with a manual, you know. They were just kids when they had me--20 and 21--and there's no way they could have done any better than they did. And look at me now! Obviously they got the job done!
Finding something like that to say is a whole lot more productive and empowering than a three-page rant on how parenting "should" be done, IMO.
