it appears many of us were raised by emotionally disregulated "adults."

Yep I hated it when Dad came home. My mom was the primary abuser, mostly through neglect, but at least she was quiet and left us alone. When he came home daddy dearest loved to scream-narrate every big feel he was having about every minor thing in the house, and I would get screamed at if I said anything. I would just shut myself in my room. I was a fucking CHILD yet his big boy fee-fees were our problem to manage. Meanwhile if I ever made a peep he'd start screaming, pick me up, and literally throw me in my room. Imagine holding a LITERAL CHILD to higher standards of emotional regulation and maturity than the "adults".

This was my mom.
We cleared the living room as soon as we heard the garage door open.
That was my dad. He died in April and I have yet to shed a single tear. My brother didn't even go to the funeral.
