Should I apologize to my parents?
I’m so angry right now. Today after Biden pulled this stupid bullshit, My mom and dad bullied me into getting vaccinated by threatening to make me pay for my last year of college (which would have been most of my savings which are reserved fir a down payment on a house when I graduate)
I’m 21, about to be an engineer, and my fucking parents force me to take a vaccine that has claimed people’s lives.
So I have to go to the doctor tomorrow and basically register for a watch list where the doctor checks on me every day for 2 weeks to make sure I don’t have problems. If I have any semblance of a headache, I have to drop everything snd go to the emergency room because that’s a giveaway of a blood clot. On top of worries about college classes YAY!
I came home from getting the shot, and I cursed at my parents like I’ve never cursed before. I told them they were bullies. I told them the previous 21 years means nothing and that once I have my degree they won’t have me around anymore.
My mom got the worst of it. I accused her of never having loved me and I hope she will feel awful when she’s looking at me in my hospital bed with a blood clot or an allergic reaction. Oh man, I’ve never seen her cry so hard. Hearing her son say that to her... I think it cut her deeper than I realized (words can be powerful, that’s a lesson I learned today). As I’m writing this she’s bawling in her room and dad is trying to calm her down
My dad threw this barb out there “you’re on my payroll, so you won’t disrespect us like that. When you’re on your own you can disrespect us all you want and we just won’t visit you” I wanted to take him in the yard and let my anger out man on man, but all I said was “DEAL!”
We got into a fight and long story short he hurt his head badly and had to put some ice on it. I’m glad my brother was able to give me some kind of clarity because my judgement was beyond clouded
Im torn. If I’m going to be the adult, do i apologize first? Do I apologize at all? Part of me feels like I let things get out of hand. The other part of my feels like they deserve every bit of it because they didn’t respect my bodily autonomy. I’m really stuck here. At least my college is paid for, so when this is over they won’t have to deal with me anymore.
