Do someparentshave a PhD in nagging about grandkids?
Its like they think theres a secret baby factory were all hiding from them.
Meanwhile, their kids are dodging these inquiries like theyre trying to avoid an ex at ahigh schoolreunion.
Funny thing is, Leo isgay, and mom even asked him if he was planning to adopt.
So, whats the big deal?
Well, rewind to when Leo was 13.
His parents split, and while they were off finding happiness, their kids were left with grandma.
Not exactly the childhood memories youd want to replicate, right?
That must have been a painful sting.
After all, the truth hurts most when we know were wrong.
But was he wrong for finally standing up and saying what all of his brothers were thinking?
Therapistssay its not unusual for adults who experienced abandonment or neglect to have a fear about becoming parents themselves.
Its a defense mechanism.
Childhood abandonment can greatly impact our relationships later in life.
We asked the poster how his brothers reacted to his confrontation with their mom.
The poster explained that his brothers didnt really react to the whole incident.
Plus, they dont really have a relationship with each other and pretty much catch up on holidays.
The poster told us that his mom never apologized and no one ever talked about what happened to them.
She would always blame my dad for everything and tell us he was the one that abandoned the family.
I had always thought they both did, so that fell on deaf ears.
Ive never gotten an apology from either of them, the poster explained.
We asked the poster about his relationship with his mom after the divorce.
After she met a new guy, she stopped visiting him that much.
At this point I had become extremely depressed.
I somehow knew I had to snap out of it to get out of my living situation.
I dug deep and finished high school with good enough grades to get into college, the poster recalls.
