All I ever read in here is how bad everyones parents have been. I don't have a good memory but I don't ever recall seeing someone say something positive about a parent.
I would like to take the time and start this post to see if anyone in here can find at least one nice thing to say about their parent/s.
My mother committed suicide when I was 9 so I don't really know a lot about her. She seemed to love me and I hope she is in a better place now.
My father was a criminal and was neglectful but he loved me. He did the best he could do as a parent. He made mistakes as all human beings do. How can I beat up on him for his mistakes, when I've made some of the same with my own child?
On the few occasions he spent time with me he make it count! He instilled a lot of wisdom in me. I carry his words around with me to this day. My favorites are: "Things aren't always as they seem", "There are always two sides to every story because everyone perceives things differently", "Some things are better left unsaid", "Never underestimate your opponent", and "Choose your battles wisely"
When I was all grown up I got into a car accident and there was no one willing to help me out. My father finally grew up, and became a 'dad'
