[quote=Anonymous]My parents were and are terrific. Nice balance of discipline and love. The wall that existed and continues to exist between us is because they simply did not "get" me. They tried but I am cut from a different cloth. I always felt loved but rarely understood. Still don't, so that has limited how deep our relationship can go. I don't really know what they could have done differently. I do make an effort to try to get into and understand the things that my kids are passionate about, but we seem to have more in common naturally than I did with my parents. My brother is just like them and has a better relationship than I do. Just the luck of the draw. All that said, I love them dearly and am eternally grateful for everything they did and continue to do for me. [/quote]
