@smolcasm@fedi.rrr.sh @2something@transfem.social My family - especially my father - definitely had the "my house, my rules" thing. Even when I was past 18 but still living with my parents. I wasn't treated with respect or equality; I couldn't even really have relationships while I lived there. They would never budge on anything they didn't want to, even if it was detrimental to someone's health like smoking in the house. My mother, now in her 70s, is living with my sister after being evicted. She's getting to reap what she sowed because my sister is doing "my house, my rules" to her. Which is hilarious, because my sister doesn't even do that to her own children. She listens to their thoughts, despite them both being under 10 y/o. She talks to them and lets them voice their opinions. Things our parents never did to us.
