"I would have loved to have had more time with my mom, she passed when I was 11.... My father passed a year ago this month after a long illness, on a sunny morning with myself and my sister's at his side, it was the most amazing moment of my life, alongside the birth of my kids." I lost my dad almost 5 years ago, myself , sister and my mum by his side. Took his last breath at the same time as the sunset and stopped shining through his hospital window. Was one of them moments that was almost beautiful if it wasnt so sad. Luckily mums still going strong and living life to the full | |||

"Haven't spoken to my parents for years and quite happy that way. Not all parents belong on a pedestal, and the decision to turn my back on them was long overdue. I envy those with a close loving relationship with their families but life isn't like that for all of us." Good point. | |||

Afraid I also have to echo this sentiment whilst striving to ensure my own daughter never feels the same way about me. | |||

They are lying manipulative, selfish, bullies who have fallen out with many, many people during their lifetimes. However well intentioned, I don't need strangers telling me I should reconcile my relationship with them. I made allowances and excuses for over 30 years I don't need to be told I might regret my choices when they are dead. | |||

"its very sad that some people lack such gratitude when others would love to have their parents back or to even know who they are" In my first post I said I was envious of those who have a close relationship. I would love it. And for a very longtime I tried for it. But ultimately I was pissing in the wind. I think implying that those that are estranged from their family's lack gratitude and are selfish is extremely unfair. People with close family's tend to be unable to relate to those that haven't. I'm acutely aware of what I'm missing. | |||

"its very sad that some people lack such gratitude when others would love to have their parents back or to even know who they are" Its also very insensitive and judgemental to make comments such as yours about people you know nothing about. Those of us who grew up with parents who loved and nurtured us are indeed blessed and very lucky. What right do we have to criticise those who did not - do you not think that given a choice they would have wished for loving parents too? | |||

"I didn't have the best relationship with my parents due to my mum having bi polar , there was an awful lot of pressure put on me and at times I did resent my dad for allowing it. I've made sure I haven't made the same mistakes with my children and I have a very close relationship with them. But I do miss my parents dearly. People say things about parents for there OWN reasons so I would never judge anyone, we haven't walked in their shoes. " No nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors and what people are realy like to live with. i hardly ever critisised my son, i wanted more than anything to make him feel wanted and not feel bad about himself the way i was made to feel a lot of the time. saying that though we all make mistakes sometimes. you have to try your best to be good to your kids and as you get older the more you learn and make up for the mistakes you made. | |||

"as parents get older it is our duty to care for them the same as they cared and nurtured us as babies! even tho we night not think the job they did was as good as they could have but they possibly had their own problems and the fact we are alive today means we owe it to them to care for when they need us" my mum has been very reliant on me for company since my dad went and her health is not good either | |||

As for owing care if someone didnt care for them how do they owe care noone asks to be born in fact thry have no say in the matter. I would like you to explain why you feel someone who may have been neglected or abused by there parents how they owe there parents anything ? | |||

"My parents emotionally and physically abused me for years, on one occasion my fathet tried to strangle me. For years afterwards I made excuses for their behaviour and desperately sought their approval which never came. And then I cut them out of my life. Not pne of my friends has ever questioned this decision which speaks volumes. So I'm struggling with this notion that just because they spawned me I automatically "owe" them care in their old age. Sorry but I owe them fuck all. There are people I do have that loyalty and grattitude to, specifically certain friends who's love is such that their is an undeniable and unbreakable debt of gratitude." Why do you feel the need to justify yourself to strangers on the internet? Similar to what you would say on other threads, it's no-one else's business but yours. x I think a lot of people are lucky they had/ have great parents. Not everyone is the same unfortunately. If I had disowned a parent I certainly wouldn't be looking for any kind of support for my actions from anyone else. | |||

"maybe your children might have the opinion you didn't care for them as well as you could have even tho you try your best! hope they don't cast you aside to rot" If they do you know what I will know I did a shit job. I believe and you will hate this but the way our kids feel about us is a good idea on how we have been as people cause although we have careers and friends if we are good parents we r missed eveeyday just like my dad | |||

But please do not feel you need to justify yourself on here cause remember children love there parents unconditionally until they are given several reasons not too. If there parents are so bad again and again you owe them nothing the greatest gift parents give is too love there children whenever they need and believe in them whatever they do. I had that I am a very lucky person I know this and am grateful for it. | |||
