Do broken families create broken families

30% of abused children become abusive parents. Children from divorced families are 2-3 times more likely to divorce themselves.

If you were never allowed to express yourself as a child, chances are you won't be able to understand the expression of your children. We mirror the emotions all our lives.

Silent treatments given to each other as parents are noticed and absorbed by children only to later on mimic and deliver the same reaction to our partners.

The term broken family carries weight that extends far beyond divorce statistics or single parent households. A family where love, emotional safety, and healthy communication is fractured leaves its members to navigate relationships without the foundational tools they need.

To name a few, trust issues, emotional dysregulation, unhealthy relationship patterns, selfless struggles, and many more. Create a ripple effect. It creates a ripple effect that don't just affect the immediate members but impacts through generations and communities.

The path to healing begins with honest acknowledgment of what happened without making excuses for adults who failed to provide what children need. You can grieve as an adult for the things not given to you as a child.

The unconditional love, the feeling of safety, the sense of being cherished for existing as healing will begin only if you allow yourself to feel it fully.

Learning skills to identify emotions, communicating needs in the right way, essential boundary setting, trusting appropriately will promote healthier relationships.

Remember the goal is to create something beautiful from what was shattered.

Why partners/people have become so abusive to the extent of killing each other ?

Why partners/people have become so abusive to the extent of killing each other ? Ofcourse it is a form of mental illness and the person is a sociopath. People these days have lost the threshold and have grown to become increasingly verbally, emotionally, physically and sexually abusive towards the other. Most of the times there have been found a history of child abuse in the form of emotional or physical form. Nowadays abuse has become the new common trend to justify the accused feelings. I would fail to speak on everyone's behalf but I'll put forth my understanding. It is very important to recognise the early signs of violence in the other person. Violence doesn't emerge suddenly but it escalates gradually over the time. Small acts of boundary violation such as gaslighting, threatening, black mailing, breaking things etc shouldn't go unnoticed. 1.They would also emotionally isolate you, so it is important to recognise if you notice any signs of pent up anger. ...

Falling apart

Image
When things fall apart, you look for something familiar. Someone you know. Someone you have touched. Even if it’s gone forever. But gradually you learn to make peace with the present. Even if that peace is not fully grown inside you. Even if you are hiding the turmoil inside with a smiling face. Life makes you swallow truth. Just swallow in silence. Never speak about heartbreak or exhaustion from drama. Slowly you discover to protect your peace, more than pain. There is not always a grand reconciliation. Sometimes you let go in silence. No arguments. No harsh Good byes. Just clarity. Even if clarity hurts you more than chaos.

It’s okay to be not okay

Image
Not everything can be figured out, not every question needs an answer, not every-time you can pretend to be happy and strong all the time.  You are allowed to have bad days. Being vulnerable is not weakness to hide your emotions.  Acknowledging when you’re not okay is the first step toward getting better. Healing is not always instant like a 2 min Maggi noodle. It’s a slow process which gradually opens doors to self compassion and growth. Healing takes time because it’s just not about fixing what’s broken; it’s about understanding and adapting to what hurt you. Pain, grief or trauma doesn’t fade with single decision. It needs space to felt, understood and processed.  As your body and mind repair, you learn. Letting go of the things that once defined you helps you rebuilt trust and reshaping new identity.  Healing takes time because you are becoming whole again.  “Not every day is meant to be conquered — some are meant to be survived.
