[quote=Anonymous]It really depends on the personality of your parents. With my dad, yes. He was a good listener and there was good back and forth. It was also helpful that we could relate to each other's aesthetic sensitivities. With my mom, not a chance. She's bossy, condescending, micromanaging, and thinks everyone besides her is an idiot. Case in point, when my 40-year old brother was visiting from across the country she asked him to cut up a watermelon for everyone, then proceeded to stand nearby to give instruction b/c she didn't trust him to do a perfect job that's up to her standard. We have nothing in common and I can't even share things I enjoy with her b/c she has no eye or ear for beauty.[/quote]
