What do you and your parents do together?

nothing really...when i did live at home, we talked, went to dinner sometime, watched tv together sometimes maybe, that was it...now we do nothing cause im 1000 miles away, muahahahahahahahah

 

humm. i really dont get along with my dad... and my mom is cool , but i dont do much other then talk with her about stuff, she told me so many cool stories about astral projections . she even sort of opened me up to entheogens

 

Make Mosaics and Stained Glass. (Two things my mom pased on to me ~ Thanks Mom!)

 

I see my mom about once a month, we chat about things that aren't important.

My dad and I haven't had a conversation last longer then 15 seconds since I was 11 or so.

 

man same here.

 

my dad passed away when i was 13...and in a way, i dont care. i look back at my life, and i see myself happier how i am now then i would be if my dad was alive...i would want him to be alive with all of my heart, but i would probably be a completly different person that i wouldnt want to be...its sad to say, but its true =(

 

the last three posts are so depressing

 

Eh, I have really close knit friends, and my sister and I have the best relationship imaginable. She's one of my best friends.

It's not so bad. Just not really that close to my folks. I moved out when I was 16 after having to beat up my dad. He literally jumped across the table and started punching me in the face after I told him to stop yelling at my sister (about politics).

Then I laid him out.

Now we actually get along better. I think I had to beat him to a pulp to earn his respect. He's not hostile towards me at all, just avoident.

The part that I felt so insulted about was my mother, who told my sister later that she felt so bad for my dad because I knocked him around... after he lept across the table swinging.

But it's all in the past now. I have people I can trust, and that's what familys really about.

 

I've come pretty damn close to physical fights with my dad, but I managed to avoid them. I'm glad. It seems like a real fight would have ruined everything...

 

i watch movies at home with them sometimes. eat with them sometimes.

when my car is fixed, i'm taking my mom for a drive up in the mountains and back. she's handicapped, so we don't do a lot together now outside of the house.

the extended family has get togethers we all attend.

beyond that, my family all go camping and fishing, but i stay home. being stuck in the middle of nowhere with my family never appealed to me.

in a few years i'll move away again. so i'll not see them really. i'm bad at keeping contact with people over distances.

 

Hahaha.

Bolded just to be safe, right?

 

My relationship with my parents has kind of switched in the past year or so...I think my mother is scared of me, but we still go do stuff...like antiquing, etc. There used to be a lot of tension between my dad and I, but now we just talk a lot...I'd hunt with him if I didn't have principles.

 

I'd hunt with him...

I don't need principles when it comes to outdoorsyness, at least I'm not buying waxed fruit and factory farmed animals at the store...

 

Pretty much just movies with my mom i don't really fit in with her and she kind of dis owned me not that long ago

and with my dad we play music together, drink once in a while, go for drives/ walks(mostly walks), workand hang out with some of our friends... i'm pretty much a younger female him so we get along fine

 

argue about everything because they're so closed-minded and they won't let me be free.

 

You kinda have to let yourself be free, first.

 

and not be 14 any longer. (no offense, thats just the age most kids seem to fight with their parents). in a few years, they'll give up trying to control you. or you'll move out.

 

HAHAHAHA

nice touch

 

I get on insanely well with both my parents, i'm fairly lucky in that respect



I can't think of anything specific that we "do"

 

well my dad lives in georgia..
but lets see..the last time i saw him was at christmas. we talked about music..played our harmonicas together(was a weird coincidence..haha) umm...just stuff like that.. i remember when he used to live down here or when i went to GA for the summer before 6th grade i loved just layin watchin tv or something with him...
hes one of those biker dudes..
ever hear that thing about how girls usually marry guys who are kinda like their dads and guys with their mums?


and my mom..idunno..she has back problems so shes always layin down or something..well she used to, shes more active now..but i can't really think of specific set things that we do together...

weird that i can say more about my dad than my mum and he's never really around. hah
