[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, I appreciate the fact that everyone is trying to help and offer advice with the limited background info that I have given here. A lot of the suggestions you have offered are ideal for some situations or in an ideal world which clearly I am not part of. We have a "don't ask don't tell" unspoken policy regarding our "family business" and with that said, I have never made up stories to make it look like my parents are happily married, the same way I have never offered to tell them they are not. My in-laws know that my mom runs businesses in a few towns and she is "usually" not in our family home (thanks God for women empowerment). Both of my parent's should be able to join the rest of the family if there is a function to welcome my inlaws because separated or not, they are both my living parents. If my mom is not there is just no point. My brother's wife is getting involved because I had reached out to her for advice on how to handle the situation and to also help me with coordination because I needed someone who not only knows the situation at home, but also someone who can be a little impartial. I am sure everyone who comes from a broken home always wishes things were different. God bless you who have a perfect family that has it all together, or feels no shame or worry about being judged by society [/quote] A broken home? It sounds like your parents separated when you were an adult, married and living in another country. If your siblings were able to buy your mother a house then they too were adults with jobs. I really don't think that counts as a broken home. My parents divorced when I was an adult. I don't consider my home broken, because it was their home, not mine, at that point. And no, I don't wish things were different since both my parents are much happier now, just as yours are. I certainly don't feel that society is judging ME, because my parents chose to get divorced. I had nothing to do with it. Your "culture" is obviously different, but you really need to get some perspective and start standing up for yourself. I don't care which misogynistic culture you come from, you can put an end to it for your current family.[/quote]
