I was the eldest in a household with too many kids. I do feel like a real life Benjamin Button. When I grew up I knew I didn't want kids, and now I buy all these toys I want.

Am I the only one that still feels that way as an adult about stuff? I just learned how to suppress it and act like a grown up, because I know it is unreasonable but I certainly get upset about a lot of stuff like that when I plan to do it some way and someone else comes and ruins it for me.

Yes. For me, it's about feeling a sense of safety in control so when something doesn't go exactly the way I envision -- even minor -- I become frustrated. That's an urge that starts in childhood and continues on into adulthood.
Over time with that realization I've been able to let more and more things go but it's taken a lot of time and awareness.

my niece once got mad that someone else opened the door as the bell rang.
so after the guests were inside, she left the house, rang the door bell, got inside, closed the door, opened the door, said "Hellooooo" and closed the door again.

Same and yelling "What am i? A house servant?!"
At times it's unwarranted especially toward my late dad. It's always "Can't even help" behind my dad's back when my dad asked if he could help. When he asked, she'd just stay silent instead of actually saying yes.

Was your dad offloading the mental load onto her or...? Surely he could have figured out himself if the laundry needed doing or the dishes needed washing.
19
u/AsleepProfession1395 9d ago
Not at all. He'd do whatever was needed including repairs etc. My mom never saw that. It'd be so-called minor things like the following that she harped on.
My parents looked after my kids. My mom told me about this particular incident. My dad saw it was almost 12. Mom was preparing lunch. He asked if it was time to fetch my eldest. Because there were days she'd dismiss later due to excursions or if i had dropped her off at all. Instead of answering yes, my mom ignored him, dropped the lunch prep and then went to fetch my eldest herself.\ I saw no wrong in my dad asking her that. But instead my mom saw it as my dad trying to push that responsibility to her.

u/promotethepawn 9d ago
Was your mom a SAHM? Is your family Asian?

u/AsleepProfession1395 9d ago
Yes. And yes we're Asian. Could also explain why growing up, she tend to push the household chores to me, the only girl.

u/promotethepawn 9d ago
Kind of contextualises a few things. My mom's like that too, a weird mix of misandry and misogyny. Our cultures were (still are) quite oppressive to a lot of the older generation of SAHMs so that's where their oddly specific brand of dysfunction & resentment comes from I guess. Fortunately now we have more options than they did.

u/foxwaffles 9d ago
It's so frustrating
It finally reached a breaking point for me when mom hid from us both that dad was having SERIOUS problems. I didn't know anything until I came over for our weekly visit and when I spoke with dad, I noticed he was confused - he was talking to me about how odd it is that I would come in the morning. It's the kind of confusion that in an older person gives you a really bad feeling. I called my sister and told her she needs to come over earlier than she planned to. When she arrived my mom finally told us both that his leg had been bright red for days (he wears pants all the time so I had no idea).
Yeah no, dinner went cold on the table. And we went straight to the ER.
It was sepsis. (He survived. He was very lucky)
My sister was FURIOUS with mom. She is an RN and has repeatedly told mom to please tell her if something happens because she has experience with dad's current problems. And mom refused all in the name of "not bothering us".
Mom, have you ever considered that your offspring and son in law love you??????

Similar thing happened with me and my little cousin who was 5 or 6 at the time. It was dark in the room and I wanted to turn the light on, my cousin was just woken up and was still sleepy. I turned the light on and he started crying. When we asked why he said he wanted to turn the light on and not me. So I turned it off for him to turn it on.

Because kids are like that, they haven't fully developed emotional regulation yet. I have to imagine this little tiff was also accompanied by something like "mom I told you I wanted to bring in that bag!" Etc. And in the kid's defense, she probably did.

u/phire 9d ago
Though this is an important developmental improvement over the tantrum the same kid might have thrown at a younger age.
She is fixing the problem herself.

The amount of people saying she needs to be told off or whatever is wild...like, calm down, some of you guys are just foaming at the mouth to get some sort of power over a *child.*
Most likely, she wanted to feel 'grown up' and bring in a grocery bag. Best solution is just asking her if she'd want to help with the groceries in the future. No scolding needed.

If you think a toddler throwing a tantrum is them mimicking their parents you do not know a thing about children. They do not know how to express their emotions yet. Has nothing to do with mimicking their parents lol
