Hummm..

That's why I parented my parents!
That's why my mom bad mouthed me!
...Just like a child.
It was like being born into a family of Cyclopes....
brut cruel force but simple and foolish.
BUT it also teaches what not to do, to not abuse the power (meaning wisdom.)
And grow to be consistent..even if they are not...

They were a living example of what not to do.
I use to think what would mom do ...then do the opposite. It worked for a time.

God doesn't make mistakes when choosing parents...
It took me a long time to understand...think I am still discovering!
