So i moved away from my parents 10yrs ago. To my dream place i just took the leap and did it. I've hear all the time "i wish i'd done that" etc well i followed my dream and for once it turned out good. My children have the lifestyle i never had the problem is my parents still make me feel guilty for doing it and its been 10yrs. I"m just so fed up of the constant snidey comments and whatever i do isn't good enough. I know i could cut contact but their my parents at the end of the day. I moved away i get that but my goodness whenever i see or speak to them on the phone i pay for it one way or another. I don't even know why i've put this on here just needed a rant.

OP,

Very annoying for you.
They may be your parents but they certainly don't sound very nice or happy for you and your children.

Drastically reduce your calls and when the snide remarks come during a call, tell them you will let them go as it's obviously a bad time for them.

Perhaps if they hear from you a lot less it might put manners on them.

It clearly isn't good for you to be so stressedby trying to make a good life for your children.

Stop ringing them as much. Any mumbles of negativity end the call politely but firmly..
