    Their utter disregard for me as a person, as demonstrated in particular by the sudden violent outbursts and beatings, was not a great time. Probably the worst, though, was when they disowned me. They apparently didn’t like what they had made.

      I was going to write a lot of stuff about my own experience, but then I decided that it wasn’t worth writing and getting my identity exposed, so I’ll say “same”, minus the disowning part, because I come from a collectivist society. My failure as an mid-20s adult is theirs to blame, because that’s how broken I am, and I still can’t cope with the past. Tough-love my ass.
