I believe that there are no bad parents out there. the parents that are labelled bad don't know at that time that their parenting is harmful. they're doing the best they can with the tools they were taught to use in the first place. It's a vicious circle.
When I came to this realization, I was able to forgive my mother and put it all behind me. I'm happy I did because now I have a relationship with her. something I never had as a child up to the age of around 33 when I decided to forgive her.
Forgiveness clears your heart of all the hurt that dwells in it. When a person feels ready to forgive is when you can forgive. It comes from your heart.
