can I sue my parents for emotional damages? and when is it too late to file assult charges against my brother?

Hey.. the longer I can go without accepting responsibility for my own short comings the better... My problems are your fault sir.

@DontMindMe Yawn. Yeah right. It is always someone else's fault. Just ask any little school girl.

Just take responsibility for your actions already

@hippyjoe1955 Emotional abuse or damage does not itself 'move on' ...that's the thing. Often those who were under it since a small age DID grow up, way too soon. Now it's hard to just be 'rid' of past trauma that may have been one's very existence... so I'm just saying that the phrase, 'move on' is nice but not always just black and white. I'm not sure if Don'tmindme meant this in a light, sarcastic tone, or was serious, but in my experience, moving on means 'sure it was and is all o.k.' to the abuser :/ (unless they finally said their apology or any responsibility)...

@Coralmist Well it won't get any better wallowing in it. Move on and start anew. It is the only way.
