Many adults realize that their parents were less than perfect parents when they were growing up.
But did we buckle under this inept parenting?
Were we permanently scarred by this experience?
Did we suffer forever due to their fault-filled parenting skills?
Generally no (though of course sometimes the answer is yes).
For the most part, we believe that we turned out to be great adults, more resilient and stronger than ever, despite our blemished childhoods.
CONVERSELY, there are kids who seemed to HAVE IT ALL GROWING UP and turned out to be total ratbags.
-> They had more freedom than Madonna would know what to do with.
-> They got handed the keys to their first car the day they turned sixteen.
-> They lived in the biggest mansions.
-> They had the coolest, nicest parents.
-> They lived the dream life of every popular kid characterised in all the best teen movies – from “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” to “Clueless”
And yet, somewhere along the line SOMETHING WENT WRONG.
Not ALL THE TIME of course.
But there are plenty of “good” parents, who generously gave their kids the moon and stars, and were later left scratching their heads at the brats they spawned.
