Single Parent Struggle :dahell:

[CHILLL]

So im watching a documentary and they're saying theres two types of memory . implicit memory(memory you can recall) and emotional memory (memory based on emotional experience)
They said implicit memory memory you can recall is nearly non existent through your infant ages, but emotional memory is there. So kids who are adopted will always feel the abandonment throughout their lives.
So do you think kids who had one parent who left will have abandonment issues? i mean real talk for those who have it how would you know you have it if you dont know the wholesome feeling those with two parents have?

If they're too young to remember, there's nothing for them to feel abandoned over. When they start remembering things like 6, then yeah the abandonment will always be there.

Yes, the OP is correct & this phenomenon is quite obvious, IMO.
