For as long as I can remember, I only had one wish. I wished my parents would simply get along. I did not want toys or any other materials thing. As a little girl, I only wished that my parents would behave more like the parents of the kids around me.
Now at 27 years old, nothing has changed much. Even though I no longer live with my parents, I hear their battle everyday and it pangs me every time. I have tried my best to be a mediator and an ear, but when things just don’t improve, I cannot participate in the madness anymore. I want out.
Maybe I should forfeit my house in Vallejo and seek refuge somewhere far, far away. Cut all ties with my parents, and let them see how their ways are affecting the people around them. The idea of moving far away is getting more and more appealing everyday.
you know Vicky when relationships become “toxic” to you it’s time to say “no more”…whether it’s family or not…self preservation is the name of the game here…and that’s about self love and taking care of you ..I’m sorry though….. this is the way it is
your parents are choosing this…..it may or may not be easy, (sounds at this point that it may be easy) but it sounds like it must be done
Love you…Shell
