In what ways do you find yourself trying to break cycles of harmful behaviors/thoughts that your parents may have inflicted on you?

Trying new things without too much thinking about failing/breaking things. Sometimes I need to make mistakes to learn.

The first couple of months we had computer at home, my dad always warned me and my sister to be careful when working with it. One night when my dad came home, he found out that the mouse is not working. He blamed my little sister [four or five years old at that time] for it and yelled at her. She cried. It wasn't her fault. Something was wrong with the mouse for some time. Anyway this kind of experiences had negative effect on us especially my sister. We were too afraid to try new things because we worried that it might break and dad might yell at us.
