Hi everyone,
sorry about the rather clumsy thread title.
Dh and I were talking tonight and I was telling him about my parents when I was young. For example they never ever picked me up from anywhere when I was a teenager (parties or similar) - they wanted me to be safe on my way home, so had to be with a friend, but they enjoyed their evenings a deux with one or two bottles of wine too much to pick me up. Doesn't bother me now, but hated that when I was young! That's just one small example for their general attitude - while they were good loving parents it was always clear to my brother and me that the most important for my mum/dad was the other one. Dh and I agreed that it's different for us - we love each other, yes, but our dd's are everything and definitely come first. Are my parents very unusual in their attitude, or not?
