Quotes Children and teenagers need parents to raise them. But when you witness your parents nursing such deep wounds as when they fight and argue and divorce, you feel the need to take care of them and to nurse them from their pain, which puts you in a very unnatural situation. You are almost like the adult in the home now.You become a yo-yo, having to go from household to household and never really knowing where home is. Your innocence is compromised.
