Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

You deserved better than that and I'm sorry you didn't get that. Every child deserves a safe loving home. Have you found !dadforaminute@lemmy.world it's great for when you need parental advice or a hug

Thank you, really. but I'm fine (now, I'm already an old fart). I see people every day who have it way worse with way worse parents and way worse problems. Everything is relative, it's just a matter of the width of your horizon. Sadly so, because you're right. Having decent parents should be the absolute minimum for existence.

I love your positivity. You've turned out great well done
