[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My grandparents on both sides were really terrible and actually destructive. It is much better to have no or little contact than toxic contact. I would have been so much better off, as would my parents, if my grandparents were not in our lives. I'm sorry you are lonely and can empathize since as an adult I now have little contact with them and of course cutting off ties with your parents is much harder but in the long run you will be happier and so will your children. Good luck! [/quote] Bullshit. You just put a bandaid on a gaping wound. [b]There's no such thing as being happy without family[/b]. You learn to manage but there's no happiness in it. Some people are more emotionally detach than others so they can reason their choice to detach but as one gets older the desire to connect to your roots just get stronger. [/quote] Um, WTF? I'm not in this poster's situation but to make this statement is extraordinary. There's no such thing as happiness without family? You've got to be kidding me. This is like people who go around saying there's no such thing as happiness with a special needs child, no such thing as happiness after divorce, no such thing as happiness for a single mother. You have no idea what individual situations are until you've lived them. You are the one who sounds deeply unhappy, emotionally scarred, and frankly a little scary.[/quote]
