Ep21: Truth & Coffee Time Podcast - Trying To Win Your Parent(s) Love
How many of us in difficult parent-child relationships continue to go to extensive measures just simply, trying to win our parent(s) love? Episode 21, takes us on a journey of how we have jumped in and out of various situations, trying to figure out how we can fit into our parents' hearts.
Parents who are absent by choice and/or an estranged parent-child relationship can cause great trauma, not just to the child but could put tremendous strain on the family. We have to remember that all children need a great amount of love and care, it literally helps them to grow up with a bit more compassion, appreciation, and warmth. We feel if a child is deprived of love and care, especially from a parent, they live a portion of their life trying to win or earn that parent's love. In some cases. If they can't get that parental love from their parent, they look elsewhere, and sometimes that outcome can be just as traumatic.
There is no way to force someone to love you, even if it’s your parents. We as humans have free will to love who we choose, even if the person we choose does not love us back. But we do have a choice of loving ourselves and finding a healthy way to move past parental pain. Our advice - love yourself more than you ever want others to love you. Shine your light bright. God will send you healthy love from so many people and places, but you must be mentally and spiritually ready to receive it. We love yall for real!
