what the others who criticize don't understand is the effect that time plays into this . Like years and years .
It develops into a situation where you try to talk about music , food , the weather , and other meaningless superficial things , but you remember how they wronged you , how they didn't believe in you , how they felt at liberty to say the things they said in the past and even beyond the words it shows that they didn't think enough of you to show you the common decency of exercising restraint that they probably would have shown a stranger .
The relationship is rotten from the inside out and then you're supposed to eat dinner together like you "should" as a family .
One lesson that old folks should learn is you can't get respect through constant discipline and just demanding it because of the status of boss or parent .
I hate my parents and the flaws they have passed on to me , but i am working on them .
