Father’s Obsession with Miniature Wargaming Studio Sparks Family Feud with Daughter and Fiancé
This regression is so common that Elle Hunt wrote a piece for The Guardian investigating it. She notes that no matter how old we get, most of us can’t help but feel like children around our parents, which means we often fall back into old patterns.
This might come from being in the environment where you were raised, or it may stem from how your parents treat you. Satya Doyle Byock, psychotherapist and author of Quarterlife: The Search for Self in Early Adulthood, points out that when we move out, we often go on a journey of personal growth and “becoming oneself.”
Returning back home, however, can make it feel like all of that progress has been erased. You’re right back where you started. “It’s not only incredibly frustrating – it can be very depleting, very quickly,” Byock told The Guardian.
Now, when it comes to this specific situation on Reddit, readers were torn about whether or not the father was in the wrong. But it’s possible that both he and his daughter were struggling with the different places they’re both at in life, and they just couldn’t get on the same page.
