  1. Why won’t my #abusive #parent admit they were wrong & apologise?
    🧐"Many parents who abused their children will never apologise for te harm they've done; won’t acknowledge or admit te abuse at all.. A genuine apology reqs a shared #understanding of wat happened & why it was #unjust. Many perpetrators lack #selfconfidence, impulse control & #empathy. Tis often manifests as a string of #failed #marital relationship.. Things get more complex when te parent's abusing #alcohol"

  2. A quotation from Marcus Aurelius

    In a word, there is only one thing here worth the minding, and that is, to be true and just, and to show benevolence, even to the untrue and unjust.
     
    [Ἓν ὧδε πολλοῦ ἄξιον, τὸ μετ᾿ ἀληθείας καὶ δικαιοσύνης εὐμενῆ τοῖς ψεύσταις καὶ ἀδίκοις διαβιοῦν.]

    Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) Roman emperor (161-180), Stoic philosopher
    Meditations [To Himself; Τὰ εἰς ἑαυτόν], Book 6, ch. 47 (6.47) (AD 161-180) [tr. Collier/Zimmern (1887)]
