[quote=Anonymous]The best thing for me was to move past anger and just get to where I don’t care that much. I can see my dad for very limited amounts of time a few times a year. He will tell the same stories where he is always the hero over and over. He won’t care one bit about anything going on in anyone else’s life.

Allegedly he has now been sober for six plus months, and I just don’t care. It is better for the world if he isn’t drinking and driving, but I don’t care if he drinks himself to death tomorrow or not.

I certainly won’t do any real caretaking for him — and neither will my sisters. But, one sister and I have enough money to keep him from being homeless (although he has plenty of money so we doubt it will come up).

Now, when he actually dies —
Who knows? Maybe I will be sad. But he was never really a dad. I bet he could not tell one childhood story about me. My guess is it would be more the sadness/strangeness of not having either parent alive. Not some mourning for him as the person he was.[/quote]
