Yes. I would be better off being on speaking terms with them, simply because I have to live with them as I am 14. They are both good people too
-
My father passed away when I was young and I could never imagine not speaking to my mother.
-
I don't know what happened...I went thru a divorce...my "ex" told my family lies about me and they chose to believe the lies....The lies were based on my past..ie.. drug abuse...but that has not happened since 1998 and I thought everyone was on that same page...Now it has been over 5 years...both of my grandparents died believing the lies told...my mother abandoned me..I'm spiritually sick..and emotionally drained...I need my mom...I'm 44 years old....how can she do this???
-
I was on and off when I lived at home. It was funny that when I moved out, my parents and I have always been on great terms. I guess a bit of distance can be good sometimes.
-
I am but I barely talk to them. I avoid them for no reason at all, but anytime I need something they are there for me.
-
Yea, I live with them. They're out of town right now though! Woohoo!
-
NO I'm NOT... There both dead.
-
i am very close with my parents and we speak daily. +5

Yes, my mom and I are quite close. My dad died about 4 years.
-
Yes but our relationship is very superficial. My parents are extremely religious and dont agree with my lifestyle. I try to keep communication open but most the time they dont want to know about anything real....we talk about tv shows, food, and vehicle problems. its sad but i guess i'd rather have that than nothing.

Nope. I recently got married and haven't spoken to my parents since. They invited someone to the wedding that was not invited...specifically not invited. Before the wedding they told me they felt bad this person was not invited but respected my wishes. Not only did this person attend the wedding my mom brought her to my house while the morning of, while I was getting ready for our big day!!! Then my mom (who is not much of a drinker) got compeletly drunk at the reception and was very inappropriate. I have lost all respect for her. She is selfish, inappropriate, disrespectful, and I don't see how I can trust her again. I hope it was worth it for her!

Yes I call my parents a couple times a week. If I didnt call them I would never speak to them. Damn Old codgers are always doing something.
-
My father is dead. My step-mother and I are on great terms with each other. I haven't seen my biological mother since I was about ten years old and I have no idea whether she's still alive or not. Those are the only answers I have to that question.

My natural mother and I used to talk, but I was doing all the work in the relationship so it fell by the way side. I don't know my natural father. My adoptive father and I speak but he doesn't listen. Take it or leave it with him, don't read into it, it is just how he is. I know he loves me. My adoptive mother is dead. It was a very painful, abusive relationship that still causes me to seek professional care. I did not speak to her for the last 10 years of her life. It was a healthier choice to NOT have her in my life. My step mother is a glorious piece of gold that I would gladly walk through hell's fire to find her. Needless to say we speek often and she ALWAYS listens.
-
Of course. There is nothing in the world that would seperate the love I have for my parents, nor the love they have for me. Same goes with my entire family.
-
A lot of things. Doesn't matter anymore. I know my dad is dead. She probably is too.
