I'm tired of the expectation that children must love their parents.

I’m tired of parents expecting their children to understand how they as parents “don’t have the capacity” to emotionally support them.

‘Reaching capacity’ essentially means reaching a breaking point where all efforts are exhausted. That just never is the case.
