They are closer to it then we are and most fear it.<br /><br />When you get older, you start to forget things, and so your only saving grace is being surrounded by the familiar. By moving they've lost a connection to their past and to there memories, which can be very frighting. It's like after all these years, having to start from scratch and just like any frightened animal, they'll attack first and ask questions later. No it doesn't make sense, especially considering what you escaped by leaving that apartment, but most fears are illogical.<br /><br />My point is don't take on there issues, you have enough of your own, and don't take anything that comes out of there mouths personally. <br />Soon enough they will get used to the new place, their new surroundings, and once you start making new memories things will calm down. <br />I don't know what is up with your dad, nor do I understand the history there, but what I do know is that you can't help those who don't want to be helped so don't waste your energy.<br /><br />I'm proud of you for fighting back...no one should put you down...:))Little Miss Muffethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07374027526189201051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1435666523778098987.post-39309534285713888872010-12-01T11:11:43.200-05:002010-12-01T11:11:43.200-05:00Oh, Beana, how I enjoy your rants... I really do.....Oh, Beana, how I enjoy your rants... I really do... though not the stress that the real deal causes you, but it's funny shit. <br /><br />First off, I need to say, good riddance of the old rotting place, so what if it was in Manhattan? Rats live in manhattan too. lol Your parents need to appreciate the change and see the positive but they don't sound like the life-loving, positive types. I don't know what is up with older folks in general. They start feeling like the world owes them something the older and more decrepit they get. Like, 'i worked so hard all my life, and here i am falling apart and broke'. Well, that's just how it is. Not everyone ends up as Donald Trump. You, didn't ask your mom to be born and you, weren't responsible for the choices she made regarding her own life. And furthermore, many women DO go crazy when they become moms (present company possibly excluded?). First off, there's no denying the physiological that occur in the process of bonding with a baby (reason why moms continue telling you to take a sweater until they die) plus no one truly tells you just HOW MUCH work it truly is being a parent. But of course, to express outright that motherhood isn't the best thing for everyone is very taboo, so many women who have these grudges, hold them deep inside and only show them under extreme duress. <br /><br />Your parents are afraid of change. Well too bad for them. They can get with the program or they can stew in their misery... it's not YOUR job to make sure they focus on the possibilities. And it's good that Dave is able to manage your dad, but if you need to bring out 'scraps' on his ass... you have my full support. Go for the neck, with a sharp object, a weak spot on everyone!!!! xoxoxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
