Some recovering addicts' children may not be happy about their parent's recovery for several reasons.
They may have experienced a chaotic and unstable home environment during their parent's addiction, which, while detrimental, became their norm.
The sudden shift to a sober and structured household can be disorienting and uncomfortable for them.
Some children may harbor resentment or mistrust towards their recovering parents due to past actions and behaviors while they were addicted.
They might hate because it's challenging to forgive and forget the pain they endured.
The mixed emotions of children in response to their parent's recovery often stem from a combination of discomfort with change, lingering resentment, feelings of neglect, and the fear of relapse.
