A lot of time people comment on their own life as a youth, not really understanding the fucked up parts were in fact, fucked up.

I didn't know that the insane shit my parents put me through wasn't normal life for everybody else. Took me well into my 20's to figure it out and even though I'm 50, I am still re-discovering memories that remind me just how fucked-up my life was back then. Re-connecting with my sister after 2 decades of estrangement due to family dysfunction and addiction, new realizations are still unfolding for me.
