Burden to parents quotes

There is no greater burden on a child than the unlived life of a parent.

If as children, we were treated as “burdens” to the family, it makes sense that we would try to earn love + safety by having as few needs as possible. While this can be a useful survival strategy, in adulthood it can translate to downplaying needs and inauthentic relationships.– Crystle Lampitt LMSW #thoughts
