is it ok to hate your parents?
i've resented my parents since i was 5.
they cooped me up in the house after i went home by myself and would ignore me whenever i initiated a conversation. i have never had a good conversation that didn't involve them preaching about religion and god.
every time i committed a 'sin', they'd beat me and blame it on my personal interests while preaching about how my sins will lead them to hell. they always use family as an excuse for the abuse i got from them and my brother. i'm usually very indifferent to religion, but my parents have caused me to hate god, and for no reason.
my sisters always tell me not to hate them or get mad at them, and every time they do, i feel like an asshole for being so ungrateful.
As long as they are human, it's perfectly normal to hate someone. Especially when they cause you pain. It really doesn't matter if they are your parents or your siblings. Family should help guide and protect you. If they can't even do that for you then you have every right to feel resentment. And no one can decide whether what you feel towards them......
