I am really envious of friends who enjoy spending time with their parents socially/going on holiday with them/ going to pubs/restaurants etc.
I find seeing my mum quite stressful, and my dad is dead.
For those of you who enjoy being with your parents, what was your childhood like?
Were your parents strict, or just let you do pretty much what you wanted? Did you have to do chores? Homework?
I have 4 children, and really want them to have lovely relationships with me when I'm older, but it really worries me that they wont. I'm quite strict about doing school work, and my eldest does chores for pocket money.
My mum is quite toxic, and often says really hurtful things. I worry so much about ending up like her, and my children only seeing me out of duty.
