Going to the trouble of suing for past parental actions is not going to be a positive move toward your own mental health. Even if you had a positive outcome, it would not be enough repayment for pain and suffering in that an apology or regrets would not be included. Look instead for good things in your current life; hopefully you have found a "mother of the heart" and have others who provide love and kindness.

Why are all adult parents abusive to all children?
So all parents are abusive to their kids apart from teen parents? No that is not true. Some parents have serious issues and that include teen parents as well but there's help to get. The majority of parents are not abusive.

Psychological arrested development occurs due to trauma/abuse in childhood. The abuse survivor, though an adult, is stuck at the age when the trauma of abuse began, and their natural progression of childhood through to adulthood stopped.

Can parents make a will leaving nothing to abusive adult children?
Yes. They should have the will drafted by an attorney who specializes in probate and is familiar with state laws. A testator who wants to disinherit adult children must do it properly for the will to be effective.
Is the will of parents is the will of god?
The Bible teaches believers to honor their parents, and many Scriptures point to the importance of children being obedient to parents. But that is not the same as identifying the will of the parents with the will of God. When a child becomes an adult, the parents are no longer responsible for that person's moral choices, and each adult must seek out God's will for her or himself. Furthermore, parents who are abusive or cause their children to do things that are clearly sinful cannot be said to be acting in the will of God.
Is tickling abusive when an adult holds down an adult and tickles them till they wet their pants?

You want to move with your sister who lives out of state but you are only sixteen What would you need to do to move out?
You will need the permission of your parent(s). But if you are in an abusive home, and your sister is an adult, she can petition the court for custody of you. But you will have to prove that the abuse does exist.
Why would a grown adult choose to move back with his sexually and emotionally abusive parents?
People -- overwhelmingly women -- remain in an abusive household for a variety of reasons: economic, parental (to protect the children in an abusive marriage), and psychological. But the objective obstacles facing the victim of abuse cannot be overstated. Abandoning the abusive parents frequently leads to a prolonged period of destitution and peregrination. Yes, I am 30 and I just moved back in with my abusive mother. I moved away about 3 years ago, tried to make it on my own and failed. I was depressed and unable to function. There seems to be something in this relationship, although unhealthy, that drives me to function. Pretty pathetic, right? Anyway, I'm trying to set new goals (financial independance etc) so that I can move out in about 6-8 months. If this doesn't work, I fear I will fall down the spiral of self-destruction. My life is so pathetic.
How do you convince a non-abusive family member to see an abuse counselor if they do not believe there is abuse in the family?
All you can do is to point out what YOU consider to be the abuse that's taking place and why YOU consider it abusive conduct -- after asking to be heard on the subject by the family member in question. And all you can do is urge the person in question to address whatever is going on IF they hear you out. But they're only going to take steps to address a problem if THEY consider it to be a problem in their family -- it's not something that can be forced. Maybe if you broach the subject again, you can offer up some literature (pamphlets, books etc) re the abuse in question. Unless children are the subject of abuse, I think no matter how much you care or what your views, if an adult is a victim of what you consider to be abusive, all you can really do is say your piece and let that adult make up their own mind as to what constitutes an acceptable relationship for that person at that time. By forcing the subject or intruding without exercising diplomacy, you risk alienating the family member and isolating them from your support if there is abuse taking place, so tread carefully.
