It’s NOT Blame to Be Honest About Your Childhood | Healing from Emotionally Immature Parents

If you grew up with emotionally immature parents, you may struggle with minimizing your own experiences: 💭 “They did the best they could.” 💭 “I shouldn’t complain.” But here’s the truth: Being a reliable narrator of your own life isn’t blame—it’s self-trust. Your inner child needs to know that the you of today will finally listen. This is a clip from my online mental health membership, Therapy Skills on Demand. We spent the summer of 2025 doing a book study of Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents. In this short clip, I share why acknowledging your truth is essential for healing—and why it’s not the same as blaming your parents. 🌱 Want to watch the full talk?
