The Wildest Parenting Texts of the Week (September 17, 2024)

When you dig through as many texts from bad parents as I have, you start to see some patterns emerge. It's genuinely devastating how many parents would rather cling to the idea that they're right about everything and their kids are wrong about everything than have a productive conversation with them. They would rather never see their kids again than do the uncomfortable task of examining their past behavior and its effects on their loved ones. Sometimes, it seems like a disproportionate amount of adult children go no contact with their parents, but if they're entirely unwilling to extend the smallest amount of empathy to their child, why would they want to continue a relationship with them? If they were in an unstable situation growing up and nobody is willing to acknowledge it, there's no reason for an adult child to want to introduce their kids to their grandparents who made their lives miserable. If you know this situation all too well, these parenting texts are ready for you.
