    I love my parents. They gave me the gift of life. They did their best in raising me only human after all and of course they made some huge mistakes along the way. Now I'm an adult their job of parenting is over and I get to decide what I am going to think, choose, be. People who live their adult lives blaming their parents need to understand they have a choice. Victim or Survivor.

      Actually the question wasn't focused towards whether or not we blame our parents for our adult life, 'cause you're right we all are responsible for what we choose to do and how to overcame that ... The point was more about how we end up repeating what we learned/saw/lived and we are not able to realize that ...

      Very well said ..you friend.
      We do have our duties towards our parents when we are adult. At the same time we need to choose our life.
      You know in India we are still living in a joint fimily with our partners dependent on us and living life happily.
