Repress them. I was never allowed to voice my opinion, nor defend myself, even if I was in the right.

Repress. Expressing your feelings in my family was extremely hazardous.

@FreeInterpretation: I got beatings for nothing, expressing feelings was not a possibility

@1961dave: I guess that's how parents were that days 🤕
Honestly, I was taught that as a child I hadn't lived long enough to have any "informed" opinions about anything; my role was to silently observe and learn. My parents were not (and [i]are[/i] not) bad people, it's how [b]they[/b] were raised. They're much less rigid as grandparents.

My parents were not (and are not) bad people, it's how they were raised --> Exactly. Same with my parents.
But wouldn't it better if they teach us to speak our feeling or opinion in a good manner then teach us how to handle it ? Ah well.. they'd probably know it by now, and our childhood has passed anyway.

@FreeInterpretation: As my old flying instructor asked me, "Are you the pilot or the passenger".
FreeInterpretation · 41-45, F
@hippyjoe1955: we are both in different situation.
Both. When I expressed my feelings it was usually with disastrous results.

Repress, of course. It's nobody else's business what goes on in here. No one else cares.
FreeInterpretation · 41-45, F
Your parents do.
alterlife · 26-30, F
If they do, they've never bothered showing it.
FreeInterpretation · 41-45, F
@Wendigo: Sorry about that.
