Remember that forgiveness is not about the other person, it's about you. It's about putting down that heavy emotional load that you've been carrying and saying, "I'm not going to let this drag me down anymore. I'm free, no matter who you decide to be."

The first step is to realize that not everything is their fault. That they are also people that probably, surprisingly, feel a lot like you. Recognize them as people who make mistakes. Also talking to them about how you feel might help you and them mend any broken ties

In my personal experience, forgiving your parents can be very difficult and may be almost impossible to do. Just think about it this way, everybody makes mistakes even parents sometimes. Just forgive and forget about what they've done. It'll help in the long run, trust me. They're your parents after all and they will always care about you.

It depends on how willing you are to get rid of the bitterness you have towards them and the gravity of what they did. I would suggest talking to them first but if that doesn't work, forgive them so you can move on with your life and start to feel better again

They are your parents and whatever they have done they must have thought that it was the best for you. They might not always be right but they do what they know how to and their best for you.

Know that parents make mistakes, sometimes big ones, just like any other human being might; and know that they did the best they could possibly have done given their own knowledge and past experiences

Stop pointing out their problems and let their parental pressures pass by you. You do not owe anything to them.

You can try to accept that they are human too. They are not perfect and they dont have all the right answers. Just accept that they are human and they can also make mistakes
