Do you believe that a parent is entitled to have contact with their adult child/children
or that they need to earn it?
After you’ve grown up and a shitty parent asks, pleads, demands your attention, do you give it?
Do you think oh, they gave me life, I should appreciate that and overlook the abuse/neglect/whatever because they thought they were doing their best?
Or do you say well damn, they should have educated themselves and done some introspection and some work so that they could have done better, and not caused me so much pain, and my life is better off without them in it, so they can just bugger off?
