I’m definitely on board with this, I’m lucky enough to say that my family doesn’t believe it to be my responsibility to reconnect with my dad as an adult. As a kid/teen, I really wanted to connect with him and our relationship has shifted as adults but he’s got a literal baby in the mix now and that changes a lot for me, personally. I don’t feel the need to connect with him, I may feel now like I may be obligated to be in a babies life as a big sister.
omg literally!!! he’s too prideful/stubborn to admit that he has done a lot of things wrong and my mom knows it and ig she’s tired of being in the middle of a strained relationship but it annoys tf out of me that she keeps telling me to be the “bigger person” and just ignore everything he’s done. and the worst part is i have tried to put it all behind me but he just keeps doing the same shit and i’ve had it now lol
like i love my mom so much and ik she sees my side but it pisses me off that she keeps telling me to be the one to do smth about the problem bc she knows i’m ironically the only one who can put my own pride aside and admit to my wrongdoing. like why are we treating my dad like an unstable child
