[quote=Anonymous]OP, You have my sympathies. I know how you feel. It seems like your father is very set in his ways and views a lot of things through the lens of his Hungarian background. While my dad doesn't have political conspiracy theories, my parents also came to the States from another country. Ever since my mom passed away some 14 years ago, I've dreaded talking to my dad as well. He also is a pessimist, and every conversation generally revolves around how much pity we should have for him because of all the things he must endure. Ironically, he's in the top income bracket for his country and has really good health, so I'm not sure how much more he is looking to get from life. It's really exhausting, particularly because it feels so one-sided to have to show interest in his life when he doesn't show much in his grandkids, etc. I know there is no solution for this. Just know that I understand what you mean.[/quote]
