Insert horrified looks when I tell me friends some “funny stories” from my childhood. :D

    "They fuck you up, your mum and dad.

    They may not mean to, but they do.

    They fill you with the faults they had

    And add some extra, just for you.

    But they were fucked up in their turn

    By fools in old-style hats and coats,

    Who half the time were soppy-stern

    And half at one another’s throats.

    Man hands on misery to man.

    It deepens like a coastal shelf.

    Get out as early as you can,

    And don’t have any kids yourself. "

    *This Be The Verse

      "Get out as early as you can,

      And don’t have any kids yourself. "

      I did not get out early, but my eventual spouse and I were on the same page: the crazy stops with me.

      My sister had different plans and now has two neurodivergent kids. ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ

        I’m pretty sure that one of my parents and their siblings are all ND. I don’t think it’s terrible, but the unawareness certainly is.
