Your Parents, Success or Failure. Options

[Consynx]

Be as harsh as you want...their your own rents.
but im curious, how many of your parents are loaded, how many are broke as sh*t...and just all that jazz...

That's all..

Finantialy, my parents (dad) are a great sucess... dad ended up working for a dental lab that he eventually bought out and just recently sold to a Greman dental firm, and he currently works as their lab manager, soon to retire at 55... mom on the other hand has done some ofice work here and there, but has lived off my dad's sucess for a long time now... Dad came from a VERY well to do backround, mom from poverty...

As for rasing kids, id say my parents have failed miserably in the traditional sense. I grew up watching my mom be a severe alcoholic for most of her life, was there when she tried to commit suiside, and now i'm blamed for her problems in life. My dad is a good hearted guy, and we get along way better than me and my mom do, but he listens to my moms insanity too much and he has lost a lot of respect from me in the process... I have a sister who is tweleve who has no respect for my mom (and i have absolutely ZERO as well), to an extent my dad either. the other day my mom and my sister got into an argument over somthing petty, and my sister ended up slapping my mom across the face HARD, and instead of doing what a real parent would do, she screamed at my sister "you little f*cking b*tch your a nastly little thing" and left it at that... in turn in all honesty i could care less what happnes to my mom, im perfectly content not dealing with her anymore or having to deal with her trash, and i dont feel ive missed out on anything either. me and my dad are hot cold, mostly because of her, and i honelsty dont see it changing ever in my life... ive had to do everything for myself since i was 18 and i havent had parental support since my early teens, so in all honesty i dont think there is anything to gain from either of them now...
