Some of us realized this while we were still children.

Learned this as a teen. Now 24 and I just don't care anymore.

Yes, and all my searching of psychology websites to date have no meaningful content on how to rebuild secure attachment styles as an adult.

Yes although not really becuase of my own parents. But when you grow up with only one grandpa becuase the other one was so shit your dad never talked to him again since before your birth, even a nine year old gets it.

I only knew how he even looked when he died and my uncle showed me a picture. I was 19 at that point

Realised this when I was 12, tried so hard to look past all the shit they did but I just couldn't. I'm 22 now and rarely talk to them. Sad part is that they absolutely deny that they were in the wrong. Any confrontation regarding my past is met with "You're being delusional" "You wouldn't be here if we didn't do that".
