A Plant Nerd Reads

This book helped reinforce my feelings that that cutting contact with my abusive parents (one of three options after confrontation), and not forgiving since they aren't sorry/refuse to change/continue abuse, truly was the best and healthiest decision for me. It's hard to feel that way sometimes, when society shames those who don't honour their parents no matter what and insists forgiveness is the only option to move on.

After reading this book I realised that in the three and a half years since cutting contact, I made huge strides in detoxing from my parents. I used to be in denial and completely enmeshed with them. I'm making progress on my healing journey. This was helpful to me at this stage and I wish I would've read this book years ago.
