My heart goes out to you, Ghogargi. What a tough spot to be in; none of us want to see our kids repeat our mistakes. For what it's worth from an internet stranger, I think it is fantastic that you are taking the steps you're taking. I don't want to play internet psychologist (I don't play one in real life either) so please take this for what it is...I want to try to encourage you somehow. I work with a lot of families and I tell parents this all the time: You are going to screw your kids up, no matter what. They will need counseling because of some of the things you do, no matter how good your intentions are. Through your best efforts and your failures you're going to make mistakes as a parent that have a big impact on your kids. Even some of the things you do right will have some negative impact on them. Some people, including myself, find that sort of thing comforting. None of us will be perfect parents, and our dysfunctions don't just disappear. In some ways, you're a bad parent. In some ways, you're a great parent. The fact that you've identified and are addressing some of the mistakes you've made, and doing so with honesty and humility with your daughter, is massive. Most parents never get there.
