To feel sad about this at times?

[MiaMarshmallows]

I had a 'cold' childhood and feel I missed out on a warming and loving family.
My neighbour and her husband just seem like the perfect family. 2 adorable girls and as a couple,are deeply in love.
They are always smiling and happy and I always hear of them say how much they love one another.
Aibu to wish I could have had that as a child and to be sad about it? Feels wrong to say it I know.

Your feelings are very valid and it’s absolutely ok to feel like that. Now I’m a parent I’ve definitely reflected on my own childhood more.

All you can do is the best for you now going forward, be the best parent you can be
