When I was younger, my parents would yell at me for something and I’d begin to cry. About 98% of the time, they’d continue to yell at me or yell louder because I was crying and punish me. There were also times where my parents would be “joking” with me by calling me gullible or a baby for “not taking a joke”. At the time, I was already being bullied at school, with no help from anyone, and I felt like I would also get bullied at home. I would firmly tell my parents to stop because I didn’t like it and it didn’t feel like a joke to me, but they would continue and laugh at me until I cried and ran away. My mom has been, and still is, way up in business. I’m now almost 20 and still living at home (not completely by choice, no money to move out) and she is still this way. My mom would also sometimes manipulate me into doin a certain thing or coming to a specific conclusion with guilt trips, or even twisting my words. This is sometimes still true. #Parent #Abuse #Possible #Child #ChildAbuse #question
