[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you had a tense/strained relationship with one or both parents, did things improve later in adulthood? Did you make up before your parent/s died? Or did you bring about peace by creating distance?[/quote] Things have improved because (a) I no longer expect my parents to be different and (b) I've detached. I accept that they are flawed and, indeed, sick, and by doing so am much more capable of "dealing." I look to other older people for advice and as models for life. [/quote]
