[quote=Anonymous]OP, I recommend that you read this book: Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents [url]https://bookshop.org/p/books/adult-children-of-emotionally-immature-parents-lib-e-how-to-heal-from-distant-rejecting-or-self-involved-parents-lindsay-c-gibson/16712089?ean=9781626251700[/url]. I got it from the library, insisted my DH read it, and then he insisted that we buy it because he liked it so much. It applied to both of our parents (in different ways). It really helps you see things from an outsider's perspective, and hopefully it will help you understand how to deal with your parents. You're not in the wrong; they are being too demanding and pushy. My mother also used to tell me that I was a bad mother, but it wasn't true, and it's not true that you're a bad dad, either. You're doing your best for your family, which doesn't necessarily include what is best for your parents. That's fine; your DW and DC come first. [/quote]
