Yeah, according to my therapist, most of the parents who are responsible for childhood emotional neglect think they are doing fine. I don’t think dad even realizes that I was neglected, because to him feelings other than anger are beneath notice most of the time. He doesn’t really respond adequately to other peoples feelings, and … I need to probably send this letter to my half-siblings, don’t I? They are going to have their own issues with approval-seeking because of this bullshit. Hmm.
