So true and I completely agree that part of growing up is accepting your parents are also human and they aren’t perfect.
Eg - one of my best friend was brought up by her single mother and they were a unit. Always together and I was surprised that she accepted to be my friend. Anyway, even when we were young I would notice her mum was very mean and possessive, which could be trauma and what she went through but we never said anything. Then few years later we were talking and she said she liked this guy so I said have you introduced him to your mum then if you guys are so serious and she goes - V I love my mum a lot but she won’t let it be and I want to deal with it delicately. I thought only me and other friends saw that but kudos to her mother no matter what her flaws may have been she raised a great daughter.
Naima simply has kept Shehroz in a Peter Pan like mindset where he hurts like a child, and doesn’t realise that as an adult it’s not as simple.
Sadaf and Romeo who think parents should just support their kids is equally wrong thinking. No parents should not support their kids when they are wrong. That’s called parenting. I want it and I get it is not the right way to live life as you don’t always get what you want. Three parents raised three terrible kids.
Naima and Shehroz have very toxic dependency towards each other where neither can handle anything against the other. He was learning but he is in relapsed mode again.
Huzaifa is just as bad but he knows his father won’t tolerate certain things whereas the other three don’t have that issue. Only now the R2 have started saying no which is really annoying the brats.
Let’s see what it takes?
