An Avonetics user shared the guilt-tripping image, and thousands immediately flooded the comments, not with judgment, but with their own chillingly similar stories. The discussion became a masterclass in identifying toxic parental behaviors. Users bravely shared experiences of relentless gaslighting, emotional blackmail, and the classic narcissistic tendencies that turn family arguments into psychological warfare.
