Sometimes children hurt their parents. And parents are supposed to keep on loving them anyway. Because parents brought them here, into this imperfect world. And as a result of the imperfections surrounding them, they themselves become imperfect. Those imperfections become weapons. Some children weaponize their pain. And sometimes they just weaponize what is at their disposal because it is in their nature.

This is the risk of having a family. Sometimes the people you love the most are the most dangerous. And it's your responsibility to brave the danger and keep on loving them anyway.
