Today I thought about my nasty aunt "Bernice" telling me that I "need to forgive and forget" "Joe", my father.
I can easily forgive and forget someone who doesn't get around to returning a phone call, not bringing back a lawnmower, or whatever. My tolerance level is pretty high.
Sorry, I cannot forgive someone who never asked for forgiveness or tried to make amends. Instead he just continued to be abusive.
Where was Bernice when all this was going on? Why didn't she help? I am appalled that she still continues to plead ignorance, along with all the other "adults" that could have helped but turned a blind eye?
