Once my therapist told me if you don t respect your father ( my abuser ) and mother then you can t respect anyone. By respect he doesn t mean I should be kind with him or care about him or something. He means I should talk to him ( my father ) in a good manner and set boundaries in an appropriate way, but I can t be assertive with him. I am usually aggressive or passive towards him. I don t want to be like my abuser. I want to be a good person, but it is very difficult for me to respect... Can You Respect Your Abusive Parents?
