[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your mother and father raise you with so much love and care, putting their own lives hopes and dreams on hold to stay up with you all night, wiping your poop, paying for your clothes, watching loving you just as you are. Your siblings are people you were automatic best friends, and companions in this wild ride through life. You grew up together! And then people grow up and want to move away from their parents and aren't close to their siblings...How? How can any one else in the world replace this kind of love?? [/quote] I’m glad that your parents raised you in a loving and supportive way. I’m glad your siblings were kind and friendly. Not everyone has that experience. I suffered many types of abuse at the hands of my nuclear family. I have zero contact with one sibling, thank God. I minimize contact with my parents for my well-being. I do love my parents, but it is a love that causes me more pain than joy. [/quote] My father, who never wanted to be one, absolutely hated me. Abused me physically, and called me fat dumb and lazy. Thankfully he abandoned the family leaving my addicted mother to go it alone. Although he deemed me fat dumb and lazy, mind you I was a national champion in track and an outstanding student. I went to college on an athletic scholarship and did well academically and athletically. Went on to grad school and did even better. In this sense it was easy to dismiss his rants. I did not talk to him in the last few decades of his life, but the last time I did he reminded me I was an academic snob as well as fat dumb and lazy. The original poster must be naive as heck. It was easy to replace my father's kind of love. I will say, though that in my teens and early 20's I did think he might come around but being realistic was part of maturation. [/quote]
