Yes but you have to face up to things sooner or later.


No I don't.  Certainly I never have

But is that the sort of example you want to set? If the going gets tough the Mez gets wasted. And Ms. 15 is a teenager. I mean sure I only got to the cubby house when I ran away from home and then stormed back in because no one even realised I was gone... but hey a lot of teenagers think about it. And while I don't think we should necessarily stereotype parents into having to always just not do anything for themselves, I still do think if you bring kids into the world you do need to be a somewhat responsible adult and not be such ethical egotist.

By all means explain your side, I'm not trying to judge I'm just having trouble seeing it.

Well there was no Internet to escape to in those days...

If there was, she'd be just like Mez...

Damn straight.

I dunno, Vis.  I've always found running away from problems to be an excellent solution, so why would I want my children to suffer if they don't need to?

I can see where you're coming from and I'm probably a shit role model but hey, I'm human and just because I'm a parent, it doesn't automatically make me a saint - or a doormat.

Sometimes you just have to stand up and say "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it any more!"

Running away isn't standing up and saying "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it any more!", It's running away.

If one of my parents ever left, I don't think I could ever forgive them. I understand that they're just human...but they're my parents. They're meant to be there. And if they left I'd feel worthless.

That's bullshit.  I'd probably feel better about myself and my parents if one of them was honest enough to say 'I need some time away because I'm feeling X and I think it will help me right now.'

I dunno, maybe I just got really, really, crappy parents, but I reckon you'd be pretty lucky to get through life without your parents doing a few things you can't forgive them for.

I see. So it's either: a) see everything the way Trucka sees it, or b) "that's bullshit".
Life just got that much simpler.

And yeah, if my parents established some sort of dialogue about it, that'd be easier, but we aren't talking about that, are we?

Yeah. 

I don't understand how anyone can hold a grudge against someone forever for choosing something you don't like.  That's just me.

It goes a bit deeper than that, but that's ok.
