The Impact of Emotionally Immature Parents

Children raised by emotionally immature parents often experience emotional loneliness and learn to disconnect from their own needs and feelings. This can affect their ability to form satisfying relationships and trust their own instincts. These children often feel responsible for others' emotions and become people-pleasers, putting others first and settling for inadequate relationships. Developing boundaries and seeking psychoeducation can help adult children of emotionally immature parents navigate their relationships and begin the healing process.
