Here is something I found to be true:
If you create your own family, this is the number one family in your heart and brain.
Someone talks about relationships between kids and parents you think about your kids and you.
The family of origin is still there in your mind, but it's on second position. I see myself way more as a parent than as a child and in this position I have way more influence on how it's going.
It demystified my parents for me. I see how some stuff they did was bad and unnecessary and it can be done better.
