Re: What's your relationship with your parents like?

[(Anonymous)]

My father is incredibly intelligent, generous, patient, considerate. A lifelong feminist. Very liberally, politically. He's a bit of an iconoclast. We have similar taste in music, movies, TV. He's my best friend and always has been. He knows me better than anyone else ever will, and I've never seen him use that knowledge unfairly.

My mother is...she believes she's generous but she's actually a very stingy person - tightfisted about everything. She seems to view children as inherently less important than adults. If they make themselves helpful and agreeable and appreciate her (like elves in a workshop), she likes them, but if they don't behave like little helper elves, she thinks they're spoiled and bratty and deserve to be punished. She's not someone who's ever had much use for intellectual pursuits, though she's not stupid. Nor is she a hateful or close-minded person in general.

Now that I'm an adult, living completely independent of her, she and I have both made the effort to build a mother/daughter relationship that works for us. And I'm glad for it. I've accepted that she'll probably never acknowledge any of the things she did that hurt me so badly, shaped me, made me grow up the way I am. But that doesn't mean I've forgiven her, or that I feel like I need to. The child part of me might hate her a little, but I'm fine with that; I can love her with the part of me that's an adult.
