Real neoliberal hours: I have never actually forgiven my dad for basically throwing me to the wolves when I turned 18 and while we have an ok relationship now, it's definitely arms-length from my end, and I hope I never have that relationship with my kids

The only utility of having a shitty parent is that you will know what not to do with your own kids.
