Wow Ladybird I cant imagine the hurt.
The family, such as it was, was/is still the family.

That's complicated! As I am sure you are aware.

Even when a family is dysfunctional even when it's best for all for someone to move out, move along, even with the drinking and the arguing, it's still a family. That family is broken and you get to take some responsibility for that, right, wrong, wrong, right, doesn't matter. You spend time building a family and then you break it.

That's how it is. As children get older I think it tends to get better simply because they have more life experience and can see a parent's view better.
