[quote=Anonymous]I think you should get help to accept what is. Plenty of people have challenging parents and they don't miss them when they pass. It's just taboo to talk about it. Honestly, I only know of one person where he was completely estranged from a terrible dad and he wished he had reached out before dad died. I think there was a lot of magical thinking there based on the stories about his dad. If he had reached out it might have given him closure to know the abuser himself, but it likely would not have resulted in a good relationship. Your husband knows his parents well and chooses to have distance. Respect his wishes.[/quote]
