How many don't communicate with their parents?

[Better]

My father and I have no relationship. Haven't spoken with him since 2007. He wasn't there for me growing up in any capacity. My mother didn't even put him on child support. She told him if he didn't feel he needed to contribute, she'd do it herself.

As for my mother and I?

Ha.

We were never close. My mother, in ways, is a very selfish woman. She was not very affectionate. Yeah, boys claim to hate the shit, but when you lack it, it affects you.

My mother didn't curse me - "SUPER Christian", so didn't curse - but her tone was always very harsh with me.

Once my business took off, she wanted to get closer to me. Admittedly, I WANT to cut her off simply because I know her interest in me is almost PURELY financial - but I don't have it in me.

We talk, but we're not close. When she tries to be affectionate now, it feels fake, and I don't like it.

My father passed when i was 19. My mother passed last year. I honestly wish i spoke to her more and forgave her. The wife hasn't spoken to her parents since she left home as a young teen. And the other 1 just now spoke to her parents after 6 years. Her mother has the onset of dementia.

I actually begged her to speak to her mother because i really didn't want her to feel what i felt. My husband was such a mama's boy we live down the street from her. He spoke to her every single day. His father on the other hand? They hadn't seen or spoken to each other in over 16 years. That guy met his grandchildren at my husbands funeral.

Sometimes every once in a awhile there may be special cases where it's vital than you actually DON'T have contact with family. Sometimes family can be so poisonous. That it just doesn't matter HOW long you haven't been in contact.

 

[WhenTheGoingGetsTtuff]

We are defined by our life experiences.

Ain't that the absolute truth. Direct AND indirectly. Very interesting thread idea, because i was speaking to a friend today about how sometimes you can be adopted by a family. And accepted by another family, and be treated with more love. And respect than you've ever been shown with BLOOD. I'm 1 of those people who believes that blood doesn't really mean FAMILY.

man this thread expains the culture of this board alooooooooooooot!

It sure does...

I talk to both my parents atleast once a day,sometimes twice depending on what's going on.Even if it's nothing to ask me what Im doing,where Im going,why am I going there,what's that going to do and who am I doing it with or my father chewing me out about I didn't do,wasn't planning on doing and hadn't even thought about.
Hey,whatever...luv is luv.

 

[largebillsonlyplease]

damn this is kind of sad. im sorry for all the bad relationships people have had with their parents.

My dad was perfect in my own eyes. He's gone and i will never get over it. Things he did that i didn't care about showed me just how much he loved me I'm eternally grateful and its the standard for me as to what a father and husband should be.


My Mom she calls me all the time. For whatever reason 2 minutes on the phone with my mom feels like 25 minutes. I always take the call though. I see her all the time and I give her anything and everything she wants. All she has to do is ask and its done. She drives me crazy at times but then i realize she's my mom she's supposed to. The same woman who took care of me who supported me who believed in me and still does, who showed me how a woman should be and who has always given me wonderful advice

the least i can do is everything in my power to make sure the rest of her life is nothing but going shopping, sewing with her sisters, going out to eat, and traveling back and forth from cali to louisiana anytime she feels like it

to do that is not in my nature

 

[three-fifths]

i don't.

it has much to do with my and my siblings upbringing.

and this lack of communicating with my mom (dad deceased) increases each day.

 

[clitsational]

talk to my moms daily

haven't spoken to pops in over a decade

​

 

[Mrfreddygoodbud]

My moms is my true Saviour...

and my pops is the best father I could've asked for...

I talk to him about every other day..

 

[cocobeauty]

Maybe she was a asshole to them while they were growing up, don't matter if the dad is sick or not they don't have to mend shit. Btw most of these cats who say they talk to their mom everyday are probably telling the truth because their eat hugging/emilitant asses probably still live at home

really???? wow

i do. that's why i thank them every chance i get.

i honor my dad by becoming the man he would want me to be. i lost my dad in my teens

he didn't get to see me graduate college or have a drink with me on 21 but the wisdom he gave me was everlasting.

im just mad that he died because i have no doubt if he was alive i would be some sort of billionaire chilling

i haven't been fishing since he died. i just can't do it

No disrespect, but for some reason I thought you were a female.

 

[8/11Streetz]

i dont talk to my parents only because they are some depressing ass folks


Every time i call "oh im so sick"

"i just went to the doctor i dont feel good"


"You know your Aunt (who i could give a fuckless about) just got cancer"


etc etc etc



Its just non-stop drama or sad shit. For once i would like to call home and hold a conversation with out all the bullshit

I talk to my mother every damn day

im begging her to move in with my girl and i but she keeps talking that third wheel, two women in the same kitchen, bullshit

good thread

Yes it does! These responses are very, very sad.

I call my mom every other day, my dad died back in 2000, I miss him everyday. If I go more than 2 days not talking to my mom, I feel sad about it.

I try to travel and visit her twice a month. I loved my parents, they were/are the best. I'm so glad I have/had a good relationship with them. My parents were/are my everything.

I have a two first cousins and they haven't talked to their mom in almost 2 years, they talk to the dad but it's like the mom don't exist. My mom has tried has to find out what's the issue but no one is saying anything. I told her to stop trying that's that family's business.


Well now the dad is sick and I think they should put their differences aside and go help my aunt but my my mom and other aunt is instead.


What's the longest you gone without talking to a parent? For me a week, because she took my sister side on something, but I was missing my mom's voice too much.

Is not talking to your parents normal?

Hmmm...

I can't speak for anyone but myself, yes I have not spoken to my Dad in some time. My sister and his new wife can't understand this so I finally had to check the nonsense and let them know, "This was between my Dad and me" and their opinion means nothing to me. "Family Business" would hardly be understood by "Outsiders".

 

[IMDATDUDE]

Speak to pops maybe 2 to 3 times a year. I wasn't raised by him so we just don't have that connection. I was raised by my grandma on my mom's side who died couple years back. Mom died years ago but she was more like a big sister always getting in trouble lol.

 

[ShortyCumStain]

Still communicate w/both my moms & pops. Sometimes I don't be feelin' like talkin' so I can go a stretch w/o hearing from either.

 

[Lola]

Don't be sad coco. I have surrogates who give me that love that don't get from my mom.
You can't let dysfunction destroy you trying to maintain a relationship.

I'm sorry your mom disowned you, but what could be that bad to make a mother stop loving her child?

 

[Lola]

Damn, this thread is depressing! I noticed some of the dudes who constantly troll me, say their moms hate them and didn't show love. Wow. This thread is speaking volumes.

 

[bigirl]

My real father is dead, never met real mother and the people who raised me a real set of cunts and do not have any contact with them whatsoever. When my dad was still here we hung out as much as possible. He was mad cool. I see no reason to expose myself to these horrid people who raise me.
