[quote=Anonymous]Geez, people are so grumpy. OP, I get what you're saying. I didn't know what I was missing until I walked in my parents' shoes a bit. Seems so natural to emotionally connect with kids and I can't imagine a scenario where I'd repeat the distance that I experienced growing up. I would suggest getting together with them on neutral ground, at least I discovered that this cut down on my resentment and my parents were more pleasant. I don't know if this is your experience, but as my kids moved out of infancy I observed that distance in their interactions start to grow. They are who they are, you are who you are. Seems like you're doing great forging ahead. Keep it up![/quote]
