The apology your family cannot give-Jerry Wise You have been waiting a long time for an apology from your family.
Some of the waiting is loud:

→ Rehearsing what you would say if they ever asked
→ Softening the story so they might come closer
→ Watching a birthday, a holiday, a hospital bed, wondering if this will be the one

Most of the waiting is quiet.
It sits underneath everything you do with them.

It is why you still pick up the phone with a small held breath.

It is why the version of your parents in your head still says the thing they have never once said out loud.

It is why any hard conversation still feels one degree away from the possibility that this will finally be it.

Your family is not withholding the apology.

They do not have it to give.
The apology you have been picturing comes from a self.

A self that can look at itself without falling apart.

A self that can hold its own guilt without handing it back to you.

That kind of apology names what happened.

Names what it cost you.
Takes responsibility for it.

Your parents were raised inside the same dysfunctional system that raised you, and no one taught them to build a self.

What they have instead is the Family Superself.

The collective personality the family lives out of. The anxiety and the roles, all pooled and shared.

The Family Superself cannot apologise.

It has no self to apologise from.

I have watched this for forty-five years.

In the rare cases the apology does arrive, most people find it did not do what they thought the apology would do.

The apology is not what you have been waiting for.
You have been waiting to stop being the child in the room.

Maybe this is what you thought the apology would do.

Hand you back the years
Turn them into the parent you needed
Let you finally lay it down

It was never going to do that.

Even if it came, that healing was never in the apology to give.

The waiting itself keeps you a child.

As long as you are waiting, the story is still in their hands.

Your peace is on their timetable.

Your healing still requires them to become someone they have never been.

And a version of you stays in that room,
small and hopeful and quiet,
still waiting to be told you are not the problem.

Self-Differentiation is the way out.

Becoming your own self while no longer needing them to hand you back what they cannot give.

You do not need them to get it.

You get to stop waiting.

As always,

Be wise, be calm, be differentiated.

Jerry Wise

P.S.
