I’m realizing that experiencing corporal punishment as a child has massively impacted me and my relationship with my parents. I hate that we act like everything is normal and that it didn’t happen.

It’s one of the major reasons I feared my parents instead of respecting them. Couldn’t trust them and couldn’t open up to them and wanted to die. Only got better when I moved out and got therapy. I mostly only speak to my parents when someone dies or to say happy birthday now. I can’t stand when people say hitting their kids is the answer.
