also you should love them for it, can't see what could go wrong with this, surely it won't affect people in the long term EDIT this sort of opened a can of worms so i'm gonna read some theory and so should you

They fill you with the faults they had And add some extra, just for you. But they were fucked up in their turn By fools in old-style hats and coats Who half the time were soppy-stern And half at one another’s throats. Man hands on misery to man. It deepens like a coastal shelf. Get out as early as you can, And don’t have any kids yourself. -Philip Larkin link

They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
And add some extra, just for you.
But they were fucked up in their turn
By fools in old-style hats and coats
Who half the time were soppy-stern
And half at one another’s throats.
Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don’t have any kids yourself.
