“You were never valued or respected as a child, let alone how to value or respect another person past what they can do for you. You never had a safe person, so you don’t know how to be one, yet.”
Seems very reasonable. Aren't a lot of people in exactly that situation? Better to acknowledge it and do something about it than get involved in all sorts of distractions and have it basically weigh you down until you start to address it, or worse, die without ever addressing it. Just my thoughts.
