[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's the thing about dealing with elderly/dying/sick parents, divorced or not. It can dredge up a whole bunch of feelings about how you grew up. At least it did with me. Honestly, the anger at my parents that surfaced had more to do with what I perceive as boomer selfishness and lack of preparation or responsibility for some just flat-out shitty parenting that they honestly didn't know how to do better than it does with their divorce. [/quote] +1. Lots of anger when I found out the true extent of their poor choices and failure to prepare for aging. Boomer selfishness is exactly what my (married) parents have and it's amazing. They're completely oblivious to the idea that their actions affect others. And no ability to plan ahead even if they wanted to, which they don't. [/quote]
