[quote=Anonymous]Your parents sound pretty great. I think your expectations may be too high - they don't need to be fascinating conversationalists. They're not your social outlet, or they shouldn't be. It's OK to listen to them describe a book they liked but you wouldn't read, and then tell them what you read, and move on. My parents come from very damaged childhood homes. It's amazing that they've done as well as they have and raised me as well as they did, but they obviously did not escape without some big issues. I can love and respect them, and admire the effort, while keeping boundaries on certain things or being frustrated sometimes. We are all just trying to do a little better than the generation before.
