'Every problem she spoke about became glaringly obvious when I looked in the mirror, and soon I hated my body, too. A body that hadn't even hit puberty yet. The generational curse of poor body image and self-esteem will end with me.'
"I'm going to have 'the talk' with my kids. I think my parents hoped that my ultra-conservative school would have it with us, but *spoiler alert* they didn't. Not having 'the talk' set me up for lots of uncertainties, and I ended up sneaking around my parents a lot, too. Also, I won't be naive in thinking that my kids aren't drinking, smoking, partying, having sex, etc.
"These are pretty much all the things I learned the hard way when I was six, and I didn’t tell my parents because I thought what happened was my fault, and I would get in trouble. My parents thought something like that would never happen to me because we were only around trusted family and friends, so they never discussed that kind of stuff.
"Also, when I'm not happy, I don't hide it or refuse to talk it out. This is because of how I grew up. My parents were liars, and they were mean about it. My parents lied to everyone about everything. They lied about the hard parts of life and the parts they didn't want to explain — when they lost jobs, when they forgot birthdays, when people or pets died, why we didn't talk to family members, etc. My childhood was unstable, and I constantly doubted myself.
