[quote=Anonymous]The hurt about parental and grandparental absenteeism due to narcissism is that the child or grandchild may still want a relationship. How much of an effort should a parent make to create that relationship? Do you make an annual pilgrimmage, even though you simply will be ignored in person? We live far from our family and I'm worn out from the financial and emotional drain ofthese visits. Has anyone found a good balance or perhaps just a mantra to get through these so-called-vacations? I keep reminding myself, it's the right thing to do, it's the right thing to do. But how right is it?[/quote]
