[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in a different country with grandparents on both sides that we saw very regularly and cousins, aunts, uncles etc. I remember it as idyllic. My father took care of his mother and my mom's parents lived in the same house as us so I had great examples of what a good family does. I moved to the US in my early 20s and the relationship with my parents became very superficial and sporadic. Especially my dad has never shown an interest in my life over here either professional or personal. He did not meet my son until my son was 6 years old and we went to visit my parents. It hurts that our relationship is what it is but I have given up trying and just try to accept it. I have no idea why we are this way given the family history. [/quote]
