Synopsis
Manga essay about escaping toxic parenting and healing from painful family relationships to find happiness.
To everyone who is a parent, to everyone who is someone's child. Till the author who was raised by "toxic parent" severs her ties with her painful past and gains a happy present. Hurling insults on her children, being violent at every turn, making them follow a new religion she blindly accepted, and, on top of all that, shuts herself in a dirt room and escapes to alcohol... how difficult her life was living "together with such a mother." How did she escape from such an environment and started her life over again? This is a manga essay that gently approaches not only those who are struggling with family relationships, but also those who have stumbled and stopped in all kinds of human relationships.
