And now my parents wonder why we aren't closer and why I don't share more with them.

    It's usually something like, "My parents didn't treat me any better so I can't be blamed for not being a better parent, especially in a new country". I can understand why they are like that, but it doesn't erase the trauma or what it did to me.
