In fact, I find them alienating. When stories depict loving, healthy families, I simply cannot relate to the concept of such a family. Whenever a character in a story has a healthy relationship with their parents, it feels strange and unrealistic to me. My baseline for what parents are like is far closer to the infamous Shou Tucker from Fullmetal Alchemist. People act horrified by that episode and I’m like “you guys have parents who wouldn’t do that to you under those circumstances?”
I am an extremely messed up person.

I see Disney movies (cartoon ones, not the live action remakes) and laugh at all those happily ever after endings since they will NOT happen in real life scenarios.
Broken families, check. Chance of a lifetime to get out of broken family and into royalty? 😆 🤣
