Siblings

When my parents died I thought my siblings and I would connect. For decades they used my parents as an excuse for why they couldn't visit me. Sadly I discovered they have not grown at all. In fact they are stunted. They are still trapped trying to please my now deceased parents. Why am I surprised. They don't even have an appetite for improving themselves. They didn't run away. They repeated the abuse on their own children. The pattern may continue for generations to come. Courage is rare compliance is common.
