Hi can someone please tell me why I dislike my parents so much.I'm 36 soon to be a mum for the second time.I'm educated, I live comfortably and I have a loving,funny and hardworking husband.Despite of it all I really don't get on with my parents (I have moved from Eastern Europe in 2006).My childhood wasn't great it was lacking in love and normal family things like outings and we have never been away together as a family.I was also sexually abused as a child by a member of my family but my mum done nothing when she found out.On top of it my mum is a very difficult person.When she was growing up she experienced domestic violence and alcohol abuse from the hands of my grandfather.She was never affectioned an caring towards me.My dad was never around(work).I have also two brothers but we don't talk to each other we simply don't know how to establish close relationship.Since I have moved my parents would demand weekly calls (but one of them would call out of their own accord).When I don't speak to them I feels amazing in my head and better as a person.Today my dad calls shouting down the phone demanding I call my mum.I have obviously stood my ground and said no(she can pick up the phone too).We haven't spoken for the last two months because she's been shouting at me and made my little boy cry during the video call.I don't really know what to do.I hate when they call me I feel physically sick and my anxiety is through the roof.Apart from that my life is good and I'm gentle happy.
