[quote=Anonymous] Many of us consider the necessary sacrifices to be part and parcel of parenting- not something that requires recognition and gratitude. In my family, I model respect and care for my mother and my daughter (now that she is out of her solipsistic early twenties) responds to me in a similar way. I give lots of grace and try not to nag or shame behavior that is a little careless. Your adult children are probably a great deal mentally, financially and physically better off than their neglected peers- barring mental illness.[/quote]
