This Trauma Counselor Asked The Kids She Works With To Share Things They Wish Their Parents Knew, And The Answers Are Heartbreaking

Many users on TikTok responded with sympathy and strong vows to become better parents after reading the children’s touching confessions.

“I try even harder since you started posting these things to let my babies know they are loved and work harder to be patient,” commented one parent.

“So many of these…hit me on such a deep level, I was one of these children, and it’s heartbreaking,” commented another user.

Parents usually want the best for their kids, but sometimes they forget that their children are their own selves and may have differing opinions.

Whether a kid is eight or eighteen, they still have the desire for their parents to be able to understand and connect with them.
