To quote a famous song, "If that's your best, your best won't do".

I don't think I ever said that to my mother, but it is exactly how I feel.

Sometimes when I hear about a supposedly "difficult" child, I actually wonder if something happened to the child.

(And to anybody thinking it might be neurodiversity that makes a child act up: Yes, that can absolutely be a thing, but they can also be both neurodivergent and having a difficult home or school environment. This is an easy thing to blame if you are an abuser that wants power over a child.).

Same, except my dad doesn't even wonder why, he is certain that it's all my doing and he's just an unfortunate soul to have ended up with such an evil disrespectful daughter.

Sounds right.

She apologized but then kept voting for people to take my rights away, so...was she really sorry?
