RE: We Become What We Hate — A Short Story.

in #story-300words7 years ago

I can relate to this but I wonder if parents take their time to reason that they didn't give birth to robots but fragile babies who are prone to make mistakes and also learn.
I hope people like Margaret will read this post and learn not to condemn their children

This reflects how our childhood shapes us as adults and how even though go through the same thing, the emotional abuse is so severe that we become like the one who abused us and it's very hard to fix it permanently without therapy and social support. Self-esteem is such a big part of our lives but we usually avoid it. I hope people can be more empathetic and I myself aim to be a better person than I am eventually.

@adityabhat you said it all. People like that needs help. One thing I always tell myself is that I must be better and also treat others better than the way people treated me.
