“Role entitlement is an attitude of demanding certain treatment because of your social role. When parents feel entitled to do what they want simply because they’re in the role of parent, this is a form of role entitlement. They act as though being a parent exempts them from respecting boundaries or being considerate.”

“These tears mean you care. I am going to tell you that it is not too late, not for any of it. And I can’t tell you when, or how but it will get better. What you feel, this guilt and pain and self-loathing- you will get through it. But only if you’re willing to fight. Only if you are willing to face it, and embrace it, and walk through it, to emerge on the other side of it. And maybe you will still feel that tinge of pain, but there is another side. A better side.”
