My relationship is pretty good. Unfortantly, my Dad passed away 3 yrs ago this Dec. and I had not seen him in 10 years or meet his grandkids (there was no problem between us...just lived in two different states). There are so many things I would like to know, that now I don't have the opportunity to ask. Me and my mom get along real good. I was lucky and had a cool mom. She now has MS and is in a wheelchair...so I am happy everyday she is still here. My only advice is to use your time wisely.. and I hope you guys can find some common ground....:)

I had a hard time with mine too when I was growing up. But I guess they did the best they could. My dad committed suicide 17 yrs ago, and my mom died 3 yrs ago, and I really miss them now.
From experience, I can tell you that even though they weren't the best parents, they were still mine.
Think about that next time they really make you crazy or do something mean.
My grandda told me once, (after a really rough time wwith my mom), that sometimes the kids have to be the adults. It may not be right, but sometimes it just has to be that way!
Good luck.

Dysfunctional and emotionally abusive. They treat me like I'm worthless and I'm 25 years old. They humiliate me all the time, even in front of other people, which is why I moved 2,000 miles away. If i could change my life, I would have ran away from home 10 years ago, because people don't change, and you don't have to put up with any kind of abuse. I would have avoided a lot of pain that way.

My mother and I had a rough go, then she died at 49, but before she did we loved one another alot, my father was in prision my whole life for murder and I really have a hard time making amends with him.. So I look to my spiritual father for guidance and he never leaves nor forsakes me so when I need anything I look to God. Speak to Jesus Christ and all those bad memories, are handed to him and I'm okay with that. Plus I'm grown and have a family of my own, and show them the way I needed to be shown. Love, and faith in JC.. make amends. Life is too short to hold grudges.. even if you just have to say I forgive you, and never speak again, atleast its not caging you like a bird in emotional distress right.. Pray..

You think being conceived in marriage is what determines your relationship with your parents? You're wrong! My parents didn't get married until after I was conceived and they got divorced when I was 8. I'm 22, I work and take care of my babies and live with my mom and step-dad. We all get along very good, they understand that I'm an adult and I can take care of myself and my children. I don't have a curfew, I don't have to answer to them unless they're babysitting for me. My real dad lives in AZ and I talk to him every once in a while and get along with him good, too. Your relationship with your parents is based on how open-minded they are and how you're willing to negotiate with them. You can't just shut down from them, you need to be open with them in order for them to understand you. If you're feeling awkward with them, you need to talk to them about it. Believe me - being a mom myself, I know your parents love you and want you to be happy. Talk to them.

i get along really well with my mom i mean we are like sisters but my relationship with my dad is a whole different story we dont really get along because he'd rather believe what others say about me then to believe his own daughter.

I didn't get along with my mom till I moved out. Now she's like my best friend.
