The support of your parents can be extremely determinant of your own success—the trade-off being that their support in raising you out of diapers will be repaid when they return to them. It's a fair trade—when the parents uphold their end of the deal and aren't depraved and selfish narcissists—or otherwise toxic and destructive to be around. Now, we're all complicated people, and none of us are without our flaws, but some people are better off far away… and out of your life.
Take this delightful individual who turned the generous act of receiving a car to borrow from her child into a way of shaming them for their job, wealth, and current place in life; responding to their request to temporarily take their car back with hateful and vile language intending to browbeat them into leaving the car in her care.
The irony of this entire situation is not to be ignored. How fitting for someone who is borrowing someone else's car to insist they get a better job so that they can afford to take an Uber while that same car is being borrowed.
