[quote=Anonymous]Thanks PPs for your responses. I'm starting the process of acceptance of my parents' limitations and managing my own expectations. It's already started to help me. And I intend to take the advice of building my own village. I guess sometimes it takes letting go in order to gain something and move forward. It was a pretty big realization for me that I've kind of been holding off on developing my friendships - because I felt I needed to make space and time and emotional energy into my family. I always had this idea that family was king, and should trump all priorities. So I've always pushed friendships lower on the priority list. Also, I really appreciate the stories PPs shared about their own parents. It makes me feel less alone in my situation.[/quote]
