I say, this kind of parenting has a way of messing up with a child. They will constantly think nothing they do will ever be good enough. The fear of not being able to please their parents or get it right in their eyes will continue to haunt them.
Religion has also messed up the father-child relationship too. We are told he hates this, hates that, and if we do this, we are at fault and we need to constantly say sorry even if we don't know why we keep going back to those sins.
What should we do when all we have is a book telling us about him? And sometimes those in the religious position use this fear against us.
We do not know what else apart from what the Bible says, but, why are we still drawn to things we've been told are wrong?
In short, the scripture has been twisted, interpreted in such a way that if you grew up in a Christian home, when you become an adult, you start questioning the things you learned.
Why should love be gotten from a place of fear? Why can't we be loved just the way we are? Why should our weaknesses be considered a taboo? Why can't we not make mistakes and learn from them? Why do we have to constantly be good at things even when it's our first time?
Why????!!!! 😭
