I feel you there. Parents have no clue how much they can continue to add to trauma inflicted on children by uncontrollable circumstances just because they refuse to talk about about them with children. :(

even after they become adults.

Do you think that eventually your relationships within your immediate family, that went through the whole traumatic experience, as well, but had their own perceptions and experiences, will be healed, particularly your relationship with your mother?
