[quote=Anonymous]My dad lives with me.  He and I don't like each other.  We are asian and that's whats done in our culture.  We interact with each other as minimally as possible. He does not want to go to a retirement community and can no longer live alone.  My siblings are very good about coming to visit when I need them to. I try to remember every day that I have to be okay with how I feel about him and interact with him now because once he's gone it's too late to change anything.  For now, I'm okay with how I feel.

He did not pay for college and provided my mom minimal child support each month.  She worked 2 jobs while he did who knows what.  Growing up I did not have a good relationship with him.  I absolutely hated having to go to his house.  Mostly because as a teenager he felt his weekend = his time and anything that I had planned with my friends didn't matter.  I still resent him for that--I feel it every time a soon to be divorced parent posts about 50/50 custody.  Maybe if he had 50/50, our relationship would be different but every time I see it posted, I think for me that would have been hell.[/quote]
