[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dad was like this too. Wouldn't even notice if we were sick. Didn't put coats on us. No meals. Just clueless.[/quote] Op here. Did he ever get better? How was it for you and your siblings? Did you turn out ok?[/quote] DP here. MIL, also. FIL could not deal with it, so he was literally never "there" for anything - literally, did not show up. Needless to say, they could not enjoy each other, and did not like each other, because there was just so much bottled up anger and resentment, that seeped into the kids (to this day). Nothing was enjoyable, because little things inevitably became a big deal, and big things were dismissed or downplayed. The kids usually did not have what they needed, because between the two parents, they were overwhelmed and checked out. It never became better with either of them, because that was their "normal". It absolutely affected the kids, to this day.[/quote]
