Have you ever thought people are a product of their parents?

I was abused by my mom, she once beat the hell out of me cause I broke a plate accidently, I'm not even going to go any deeper then that the only reason I never went to the police is because I was afraid that they will also take me away from my dad. I have worked very on fixing myself and have come a long way but I sick of giving someone respect that would have told me to my face that she hates me and wishes I would die.

I think there is some point where you have to take responsibility for yourself instead of blaming your parents, but at the same time you learn how to emotionally connect with others via your parent's example. It makes a huge impact on how you attach yourself to others.

I know my father is a direct result of his environment he had at home with his two alcoholic parents. His home was not a pleasant one, and now he's very antisocial in his behaviors.
