What is your worst childhood memory? And what have you learned about yourself from it?
Answer:
my father almost killing my mother. although i saw him beat her many times i didnt realize how it affected me until i ended up in a abusive relationship myself. i was in the relationship for a couple of years until i got the strength to get out of it so i wouldnt be like my mom. even though i went through hell the two years i was with my ex i got my beautiful daughter out of it so to me it was worth it. and my daughter knows about all my family history from my mom and dad to me and her biological father. i felt it was important to make sure she knew to try and stop the cycle of violence in our family from continuing. this past spring she got her first boyfriend , she is 14 now, they were together about a month and on the last day of school she went to hug one of her friends , that is a boy that she has known since elementary school, goodbye and her boyfriend grabbed her by the arm and pulled her away from her friends. that evening she went to the skating rink with him to meet up with some of her friends. when i went to pick her up she told me that she had broken up with him. then she explained what he had done that day at school and when they were at the skating rink he had not let her hang out with any of her friends boys or girls so she saw he was trying to control her and she broke it off with him. i was so proud of her. i hoped telling her about all our families past events would give her the strength at a young age to realize she never wants to go through what her mom or grandma put up with and it did because she stopped the relationship before it became more volatile and dangerous for her. i am so proud of her.
my worst memory was losing my father to brain cancer when I was 11- and I think the effect is I am independent, sometimes too controling, and have trouble letting people get close to me.
Your worst childhood memory .. This is a made up one getting your finger slammed in a door . How to learn from it Keeping your away from the doors
Sorry, my worst childhood memory is very personal and I won't post it on an open forum.
But suffice to say yes it has effected my life dramatically and will continue to do so for the rest of my life.
It happened over 40 years ago also and it's still effecting my life and the way I think about things.
Being pushed down the concrete stadium stairs behind the school. That people are bigots and will try to kill people they perceive are different.
one of my worst memories
is being forced to get a nap after having lunch.
i was not allowed getting out of my room.
so i'd lay in my bed and contemplate the shadow of the shutters on the wall. i had always found that so fascinating and would not pull my eyes out of that shadow till my mum came in.
the lesson :
when we look deeply at the small things surrounding us, we'll always find a source of joy and contentment and feel happy.
i don't think i understood that at that age (around 7), but this what i was actually doing.
