Showing Original Post only (View all)how old were you when you forgave your parents? [View all]
most of us have wounds from our childhood, i think. probably most of us hated one or both of them as teens.
i know i didnt really make peace w my dad for his failings (he was an alcoholic) until i was 60 yo.
forgave my mom a lot quicker, because it was my dad i was actually pissed at. i just blamed her for him.
how about you?

For me they need no forgiveness. They loved us, we loved them and now miss them.

It was between me and my Mom. And I was in my late twenties. And it was mutual. (n/t)
