At least in the case of the OP, I'm not sure that's what they're trying to say, though. I grew up with abusive parents too, to the point that I passively wish death on them on a fairly routine basis, but I know that I'll be a wreck when they go. Not because they're my parents, not because of ~family~ or that I love them or forgive them. But rather... the best way I can think to say it is that I'll be mourning what they should have been. I'll be mourning the parents I never had. I've done that already to some extent, but I know myself and how my brain works, and no matter how rationally I tell myself that I've worked all that out, I know it's still going to hit me. It's going to be hard, and it's going to feel like I'm upset that they're dead, but it's going to be more like... I'm going to be upset they're dead knowing that they never, ever even tried to change. Does that make more sense?
