Young Ian Sorted Jung founded Analytical psychology which focuses on one's own psyche in order to make that person better. Many SJW's are people that are angry at the world because they found it difficult to navigate and succeed due to their own shortcomings (rough childhood with bad parenting skills and victimhood mentality would do that to you).Thus if you can't point at yourself and fix what is wrong then you rationalized that it's "clearly" someone else's fault for you being inadequate and those people must pay. Of course typical SJW's are also Marxists and would dismiss Jung as being "a fucking white male".

I stopped believing my parents knew better around the age of 20. I've learned not to trust anyone but my own ability to reason.

@metaljacket81287 жыл бұрын
Morgow "I've learned not to trust anyone but my own ability to reason." My own opinion of myself isn't high enough for that. I think that would require a lot of hubris on my part, and quite an ego. Fortunately, I've found a friend or two who've earned my trust. "It seems we leave this world as we came in--alone and confused." I think that's way too broad a generalization. I know many people who've lived a happy life and died contented, surrounded by loved ones. Far be it from me to judge, but right now, your worldview seems kind of cynical and tinted with bitterness. Which is understandable--life is hard, after all--but you shouldn't let whatever bad experiences you've had ruin your outlook on life or kill your capacity to trust. We can't always be right about everything or solve all our own problems; we need to be able to trust people we know and love\care for. Just my two cents.
@Morgow17 жыл бұрын
Metal Jacket, if you cannot trust your own ability to reason, then how can you trust someone else's? You only understand so much as what you see yourself. The point is to do your best to make sense out of a situation. The best way to do this is to educate yourself and learn how to write, do research and connect different events or theories. It seems we leave this world as we came in--alone and confused. "I think that's way too broad a generalization. I know many people who've lived a happy life and died contented, surrounded by loved ones." Sure, but whether you die happy or contented, you won't remember it. People spend their last moments happy until they are either put down clinically or start to fade naturally through their sleep. Worst case scenario you die awake. I still remember when my cat died of old age while being awake doing so. The cat's body was stretched out as if she had cramps in her back. The cat was gasping a long time for air and made strange and uncomfortable movements with her legs. Dying is weird. During that cat's last moment she was completely unresponsive no matter how many loved owners were trying to comfort and connect with her. Whether you are surrounded by loved ones or not, all that goes away when your brain does. After that, nobody knows exactly where we go. Hopefully, people find god. Without faith in god, you cannot be happy with life or understand it, as we all have to die and believe we go somewhere. Nobody wants to die and let that be the end as if we never existed, with a dying brain that cannot remember anything. "Far be it from me to judge, but right now, your worldview seems kind of cynical and tinted with bitterness." I am not cynical. I just know that whatever this body is made of does not last forever and will cause you a lot of pain through life. This doesn't mean I don't believe there are good times too - I just don't believe reality is easy to understand and will require hard and painful efforts. Life is never as easy as you'd think it'd be or how you think it should be, and if it is, you have a poor understanding of reality. Nobody fully understands what reality is, though. I would like to consider myself a realist, even though people may agree to this or not. I really don't care. What's important to me is that justice and life is served for everyone, and only god can give that fully. If you want to find life, Jesus will show you the way - nobody is more convincing than him - I believe him to be the only one you can fully trust.

You see, when I first read your post, I (mistakenly) assumed that I was reading yet another existential post from an *atheist,* with all the usual "the world is dark and terrible and you can't trust anyone" mantra. But then I saw your very accurate sentiments about our Savior, and I realized that all you meant was that we shouldn't expect too much from this life and its imperfections, and that if death is the final ending, it's a bad one. You're quite right. My apologies for the misunderstanding. I wish you well. Ciao.

So, seperation is acceptable until the parents are together and healthy. But, they gave everything for us, its the least we could do for them at their end. And, one more thing putting them in old and homes is the worst thing. Because, they don't care about luxuries at that age. They want to spend every minute left with their loved ones.

If you and/or they are more mild-mannered, reasoning with them can be useful, up to a point. In my own experience, you should apply as much push away from them as is proportionate to their pull on you.

I'm 22 years old still living with my parents. Up until now I have lived a very privileged life. Two very hard working parents and two brothers who love me very much. My dad is an army veteran who moved out at 17 to escape poverty. My mom-who also moved out at a young age-is a very hardworking woman who is very much loving as she is disciplined. I have come to understand that leaning on my parents for my entire life has givin me fear of the unknown. I'm scared of doing things that I have never done before. I tend to over think the simplest of things. For example if I have to drive to church which is like 15 minutes to my house I will take the same road that always take, but if one day the road is closed for what ever reason, I will come close to having an anxiety attack and regret every leaving my house. This is embarrassing for me to type because I know alot of dudes my age love going out with friends and shit but I'm an introvert and I mostly keep things to myself. I dont like to bother people unless it is absolutely necessary and I dont like trying new things. Anyways I know that as I am now i wont stand a chance in the real world, so I have been seriously thinking about enlisting in the military like my father did.

It probably contributed to your maturity.

This is yet another piece of evidence shattering the whole "two parents are better than one" thing.

My Dad moved out of his parents house when he was 14. I am 22, and i still live with my Dad. I am planning on moving out in 6 months, as i just graduated, and am looking for a job. Times have certainly changed, back in the day, he could have easily gotten any job at age 14, while today, no one would hire a 14 year old, and my Dad would have probably been put to jail if i was out of the house by 14. It's not as easy to move out of your parents house in the 21st century, at least not for someone who has college tuition, a minimum wage job, and other liabilities. Back in the day, college was dirt cheap, today, a student can't afford most colleges on his own, without going into tens of thousands of dollars of debt. That's why many millennial are still living with their parents despite having passed the age of 18. It's a different world now, the dynamics have changed, and those with willingness to achieve and persistence to work hard are the ones who succeed. The rest become employees.

Very true, it's also amusing to have reached this state but realise your parents practice the art of looking perfect to their children to gain "respect". So they'll never admit that and have constant proverbs and phrases about the wisdom of elders. The more I realised the world was big and I didn't know much and we're all bumbling along (I realised first for me and peoole my age) then I started to look at older people with a slight suspicion. Especially the ones who try to use that view of "elders know best" to control you... They way they could at the age of 5 when you thought your parents/older folks were superman.

He's right. I'm a caregiver for my aging parents. I went out into the world and learned vastly more than they did, and returned to find them on the brink of death from the consequences of their personality disorders. I'm a bachelor so I intervened because I could but they resent me for being smarter than them. If I had never gone away so long ago, I can't imagine what a nightmare this would be. They try to put me down but I've learned techniques to frustrate them. They've become like children and I've become like their father. It would be horrible if it was the other way around. This is a temporary intervention, and I'll move on soon, and I know that after I leave they'll backslide and die - so it's like I'll have to "kill" them, metaphorically speaking, to get back to my life, but I sorted myself out too, so it is what it is. That's life. I'm very fortunate that I'm me and not them or anyone else.

I was blind when I moved away from them, and know that I see reality for what it is. I pity them, I look down on them, but thinking clearly, that’s what they had to do to survive in this. And they know what I’m capable of, lol they don’t cross that line. Survival mood at an all time high when I’m around. But I still love them

They are missing out on learning to be self sufficient and sadly many are not going to move out until they get married. So they go from parents home straight to marriage.

This seems more true for Western Society. I'm from Brazil and it's quite natural for families to stick together and live under the same roof; even when the son/daughter gets married, they can naturally live with parents, grandparents, etc. It's what I would describe as a community family. Maybe one of the reasons the West has nourished this idea of the "independent children" is that individual freedom is valued over familial bond and obligation; it seems shameful in America to be older than 18 and live with your parents. It does not make you weak to stay with your family. Like anything, it's a choice. Not imperative to leave to "become a man or woman." i.e. the "death" of the parent can be symbolic.

Theres financial independence and there's emotional independence. The second is truly important to separate yourself from that child-parent relationship which I believe holds you back from developing properly into an adult. I chose to live at home 3 years ago to help with lower rent, and it took a longggg time for my parent to learn that I was no longer their child they have authority over. I was a lodger with my own life, finances and routines. Our relationship was strained, until they learnt to slowly accept that. I'm moving out soon and my parent is very saddened, but I feel it will benefit our relationship and shift the dependency dynamic that they have with me. This lecture couldn't be anymore true though in terms of adult relationships with parents.

My parents told me, straight up, "You have to realize that we're going to die some day, and the house is NOT going to you, so what are you going to do after we die?" I was shocked but it made me realize they're dicks and I have to start only caring about myself. As selfish as that sounds they actually motivated me to be completely independent. I still love them tho.

Not even a week ago i had an argument with my mom that profoundly shocked me because i realized that the relationship i had with my mom when i was young is completly gone. Despite so many hints that i have ignored now i see that i should stop trying to avoid facing the reality that she has changed, like me. It hurts to see that what suppose to be your "home" isn't anymore and from now on you need to create your own.
@theden-jimdill70372 жыл бұрын
People do grow up and relationships do change. The relationship you have with your mom isn't gone, it has only changed. Yes, those growing pains may hurt, and it may be difficult to spread your wings and fly. Seek to be a woman of virtue. Do not compromise on this principle. Re-dig the old wells, and rediscover the faith of your ancestors. Such traditions can provide the wind for your wings, so you can fly like an eagle in a world with a bunch of turkeys. Perhaps it may do you good to visit your father or grandfather.

I'm in a weird situation tbh: I'm 31, BA, MA, and some work experience, I just managed to get rid of my student debt (I'm from EU but some private schools/universities are quite expensive), so that's good, but I've been living with my parents for years because paying a rent where I live, with my salary, was just not possible. Turns out they're both retiring, moving out to a new home they just bought, and I'm keeping the appartment, which is really ideal since I don't have to pay a rent or anything and I'm going to be on my own but...at the same time, I feel like I'm cheating when so many people are struggling out there. I feel guilty about not having to go through the same hardships.

If your parents are still renting the apartment, then I see why you would feel guilty. But, if your family OWNS the apartment, then there’s nothing to be ashamed of man. This is something that your parents worked for and to provide you with. Maybe, this’ll allow you or even push you to work just as hard to do the same for your children. Take advantage of it!

This is such a difference in cultural values. Westerners are so individualistic. In most of the world families stay together forever and I don't think it makes their adult children any less. Parents in the West are so desperate to get their children out of their house yet once they get old all of a sudden want them to give up their lives and take care of them. It's so odd. Here, we just always stay with them and make them apart of our lives.

I'm in this gradual independence transition with myself (still living with my parents), and it just hurts you know. I don't know, I just feel alone in this. I feel like I'm letting go of my support and I'm being more distant from my parents and there's a pain there. It's like I'm ripping myself out of home but it also doesn't feel like home anymore either. I don't know. I used to think independence means moving out but for me it seems to make sense to start it within, and it just hurts. I feel confused and lost and I'm on my own and it suddenly feels very real. And my parents are starting to seem like people to me rather than parents. There's pain. But also undeniable growing freedom.

I think it's a little more complicated. I will always value my parent's and grandparents opinion over any other outside force. They're older, wiser, and my grandfather is like the unofficial patriarch of the family - of course I'm going to heed his advice and wisdom. One day that will be me (hopefully) in a family - leading it. I'm going to university on my own, and have vastly different opinions on the world than my parents, but it should be every child's duty to cultivate what their parent's taught them, respect them, and heed their advice IF you live in a structured and traditional family.

I think that what we learn as children from our parents is a model that works well enough, and that's why we need to listen to our parents when we grow up, but then we go out into the world and try out different models, some of which may be better. When I have children I want to give them what I've learnt works so they can draw on it, but they will have to find out what works for them - but they have a model that works to fall back on, if that makes sense. So I relate to what you're saying, I think. They do have more experience than me so I may as well listen to them and draw from their experience.

In one way or another, I always found myself coming back to live with my Mom for short periods of time. Now I'm at the point where I understand this will be the last time. We are completely different people with different dreams and desires. Part of me I think has been searching/hoping for our relationship to shift in a direction, that I now understand, will likely never come to pass. She is content with the way she lives her life even though I wish it were different, both for her sake and my own. I can't change her and she can't change me. I'm my biggest advocate for myself and I'm just going to have to own it.

I went from being really close with my family and depending on them for emotional support to not being able to get real support from them for 3 years. It was really shocking and I’m sort of stuck as that young woman who needs them when in reality I’m independent now. That cognitive gap is a source of so much pain. The young woman who was so suddenly cut off is still hurting, although it is a natural process that would have happened gradually anyway. And I’m so happy! In those years away from my family I met the love of my life, settled down, got a job I love. Why is it so hard to let go?

I'm not complaining or excusing, just trying to add a point of view of people who might be in a situation like of a friend of a friend of mine. :-D I guess, the fundamental single aspect of independence is physical independence, which is having another place of your own to live. I think old people tend to think it's easy to be independent because a century ago house/land prices vs. income were a fraction of today's. If given the chance I would have built a house with my bare hands, today, government won't let you because of the thousands of regulations, and even the land will cost you and arm and a leg. It seems like today when you buy a house, you end up supporting the life bankers, land owners, construction companies, hardware supply companies, etc for 30 years. It's like paying to a mafia family.
