Many parents carry around a silent shame about some of the choices they made as parents. Parenting is hard. It doesn\\u2019t come with a manual. Creating a healthy environment for our children is challenging when we don\\u2019t have good parenting ourselves. We are still impacted by our trauma and our hurt; it can feel impossible not to pass it on.
\\xa0
The hard part about trauma, or behavior we categorize as hurtful or bad, is that it is not due to anyone setting out to hurt another person. People who have unprocessed trauma and don\\u2019t know how to deal with it. People who are hurt and sad all the time haven\\u2019t gotten to their anger. People who are angry and explosive haven\\u2019t gotten to their hurt and sadness.

What happens with parent-child relationships is the hurt parent wants a two-way street. Meaning, the hurt parent wants the child to make it okay for them as well, but that is not the child\\u2019s job. It is the parent\\u2019s job to make it okay for the child.

Give your children the opportunity to hear the things they always wanted to hear.
