I find your statement to be a little too presumptuous. You can't just lump us all in that conclusion based on one's internet personality. |

Hmm, 4 years ago I think, when I was 20. I saw it coming for years before that though. It's all better now. They are both happier. My dad used to be really strict and pain in the ass (all the kids in the neighbourhood were scared of him :stongue: ). Lately he's been much more easy going and really nice too. We gone out drinking/pubs several times and he could say things like "I think that girl likes you, you should go talk to her" and stuff. :haha: |

it's really freaky sometimes to see how am i like both my ma and pop. I write EXACTLY like my father, it freaks me out sometimes. and when i get pissed, i sound JUST like him too. the older i get, the more i look like him too.
when i was about 21 or 20, i hate a heart to heart w/ my ma about all the drinking i had been doing in college. i don't even know how it started, but i was like, "yeah, boone's farm is really good" and basically told her like everything i had drank in the past 2 years or so. and then she did the same thing, and told me about when she was a young adult. and it was all the same ing booze. i mean, right down to the same flavor's of things too. it was REALLY creepy. since then, i've been able to talk to her about anything.

unfortunately, mine isn't really anything like that. c0r version, my dad's totally abandoning my ma who is still recovering from a surgery and did it the day after i left for active duty. yeah, thanks jackass. right now, i don't think i could ever sit down w/ my dad at a bar and have a drink. we never did, and we probably never will. |

| I get along very well with my parents. Although I haven't seen them for over one and half years, I usually speak with them every weekend. |

I havea strong bond with my Mom... she does everything for me, and she's basically the reason I'm attending college! I wouldn't go as far as saying she's overprotective (i'm her only son), but sometimes she goes wayyy to far.
For instance, this girl slept over at my house once. In the morning, she opened my door and watched in horror because we were sleeping on the bed together. after i dropped this girl off, I came back and she was complaining that what I "did" was wrrrong, and blah blah blah--with good intentions, though.
my dad, however, congratulated me... eh, yeah, that was a bit weird. =/
me and him are alright, i guess. |

That isn't a very nice thing to say.
You really shouldn't wish for things like that. |

Is it that 'sad' though?
I'm a very different person to my dad (as you say you are with your dad), but just because he's family, should I want (or need) to spend my time around him? Guilt or something?
Guilt is bull, and I don't buy into it. Not with family. |
im sure he finds it guilty more then i do, since he hadsnt had the guts to come see in the last 5 years even though, my friends/family always run into him. but no even though they are family i dont feel the need to be around them my mom has taken his position as a dad like role anyways. |
