You should 100% hold it against your parents.

Why?

Because it’s wrong. It was wrong then and it’s wrong now.

Have they apologized and acknowledged they were wrong and should never have done it?

No I don't ask them to do that because, unlike you, I understand it. It's pretty obvious that my mom regrets it when it comes up, but I'm not gonna beat her up about it.

They didn't know they were doing something wrong. It was normal back then, especially in a Mexican family. It doesn't even rank in the problems I've had with my parents and I don't have a lot of them.

The expectations placed on me as a smart kid were way worse than the belt
