I love you media that doesn't romanticize forgiving abusive family
#coyo speaks#I lose years off my life every time a character 'matures' and 'decides to stop running away'#tbf I know people who maintain relationships with parents who still!!! currently!!!! belittle and harass them#and I really don't understand that#not to say I give anyone shit for it#it's their life and their family and their decision#but I genuinely don't understand it#I think the people I care about deserve better than to be constantly hurt by the people who are supposed to love them#I just get extra angry about it in fiction#Mostly because they often don't give validity to the idea of cutting your family off#I hate when reconnecting is treated like it's the Correct choice that people are supposed to come to#and that's not to say I'm like... against stories that do involve a reconciliation#I just want it to be a choice#not something they're obligated to do because they're an adult and they need to be a good son or fuckin whatever#I want them to be able to say 'I want this' or 'I need this for my own sake'#and I want them to sometimes say 'no I have no desire for that person to be in my life anymore' and be supported in that decision
