Parents: Deceitful and Manipulative
When you think back to your childhood about all the good memories you have of your parents, you’re reminded of the lie they told you. Although it wasn’t just one lie really, it was three.
The three lies they birthed in your childhood. Three lies they convinced you were real, before the realization kicked in and you knew the truth. They had lied to your face all throughout your childhood. Convincing you there was a Tooth Fairy, Santa and an Easter Bunny when really it was just them the whole time.
Don’t you remember as a little kid waiting excited for “Santa” to bring you presents on Christmas Eve. Or when you lost a tooth and the “tooth fairy” gave you a dollar for it. Or when Easter came around and the “Easter Bunny” had hid eggs for you to find the day before.
They were pleasant memories, with the dark truths hidden from you. This makes those pleasant memories worthless knowing they masked a lie. A lie that not only your parents told but all parents tell. It’s heartbreaking to learn that not only were they not even real but you were convinced they were by everything around you.
TV shows, movies, songs, books all contributed to this lie, supporting your parents in their wicked ways to deceive you as a young child when you were innocent and naive. If your parents would lie about that it makes you question. Was anything they told you true? Was your entire childhood a lie? The lie itself is not the damaging part, it’s when the truth is spilled that the real damage is done. Usually your parents aren’t the ones to tell you they lied, and when confronted you’re either lied to or told the truth. It is a horrible feeling when those walls come shattering down and you learn the truth. It’s like being stabbed and it’s worse because the ones stabbing you, are your evil parents.
