when you realised your childhood was pretty weird?
I've been struggling lately and I don't know whether IABU or petty towards my parents.
I had a nasty skin infection as a child which my mum refused to treat with antibiotics. She tried using essential oils/homeopathic treatments and I was off school for nearly a month. When I eventually went back to school, my skin still hadn't healed and other kids avoided me like the plague.
Also, my secondary school teacher tried pushing for an ADHD referral which my parents flat out refused as apparently there's "no such thing". When I dropped out of sixth form because I struggled with organisation/executive function, I was told it's because I expected everything to come easily/am lazy, and I was compared to my more organised peers. They did let me smoke weed in the garden though, to calm down.
Not sure if I'm blaming them for my own failures or whether it's valid that I'm suddenly pissed off after all these years.
