What I Wish My Parents Did Better
I wish they wouldn't assume all of their children are doing fine if one isn't. I wish they would give more attention to their kids problems. For example I know that two of my siblings don't talk to my mom, and they just assume that they are perfect or fine. When really they constantly play video games to cope with neglect. And aren't fine at all and really struggle. - 14 year old "other"
