Reading a really interesting thread where women talk about what it as like to be raised by a single father: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskWomen/comments/c1pcju/any_women_out_there_raised_by_single_dads_how_do/
It got me thinking a lot about being raised by a single mother and the impacts that had on me. I DEFINITELY repressed a lot of my masculine side when I was younger and am even now, only starting to discover some parts of it.
The other parts of my family situation that’s had a HUGE impact on me is money. We were raised super poor and I notice, even now, that I have a totally irrational tendency to try and collect as many things as I can – money, food, building supplies (even though I can’t build). I know it’s totally irrational, but there’s such a strong pull towards collecting these things.
What family dynamic were you raised in and how has it impacted you?
