[quote=Anonymous]Verbal and physical abuse are horrible. But PPs make it seem like that is the only reason this happens. And that’s just not true. Some families are just not that close and they drift apart. I don’t think it’s fully driven by the extreme bad parenting people are talking about. Lots of mediocre parents and kids who don’t put in the effort. They might plan a funeral but they wouldn’t necessarily provide support on a regular basis. I don’t want to generalize but I believe this happens more with males, in my anecdotal experience. My DH has no issues with his family. But if I didn’t call and have the kids call, they would talk twice a month. They don’t share health details or other information so we would never find out they had health issues unless things were already very serious. That’s just their dynamic. [/quote]
