[quote=Anonymous]I estranged from my 'difficult' (abusive) parents when I was 30, but it was still a relief when my mother died 12 years later and that door was closed - not that I don't have conversations with her in my head almost every day. Last I checked my father is still alive - I check every so often because I know I will feel a great relief when that alcoholic wife beating child abusing and molesting prick is finally no longer drawing breath on this earth. I'm sure he is wizened and frail and so logically could never hurt me again - but once a man who is meant to love you has whipped you with belts and dog leashes and put his hands on your toddler and preschool body in ways no adult ever should, the fear of that person lives inside you until you know they are dust.[/quote]
