multiple battles

[MakersDozn]

When we were young, we were very passive in most situations. We did not fight back, with the exception of a few of us complaining to our parents now and then.

Because we were so passive, people outside of the family (classmates, etc), walked all over us. This is why some in our system are combative or oppositional in the present day.

It's hard to work through this. We live in flashback mode more than we realize. We let our past hurts influence our current behavior. But we're learning to process all of this....slowly, but at least we're working on it.
