At an emotional crossroad

Sometimes parents can teach in different ways. My parents teach me in the this is not the way to parent method..
I tried to learn from how wrong they did things and do things better with my kids... I was nowhere in the ballpark perfect, but still much closer to my son now than my parents are with me especially where my dad is concerned...
My dad is living and going to die with his choices.. he does make attempts to be closer but in all reality the fact is too many years have went by and we're not...
I'm spending my time building memories with my son and hopefully one day with my grandchildren as well. With that said my suggestion would be to grab one of your kids that's interested in some of this stuff and start making new memories...
