    Question relationships between fathers and childrens

    Today went to get my coffee and while I was waiting for the nice lady to get my coffee I couldn't notice a father with his sun having their breakfast but was strange was that they didn't speak to eachother

    Is it something that goes on normally?

    I remember my father when I was younger ,we had so much to talk about and had great fun together

    Are we forgetting how to build up/mantain a relationship with our families?

    How is your relationship with you father?

    And most importantly how is your relationship with your kids?


    Is it more difficult this days to have a lovely relationship with your parents/kids?

    Not great he,s my father but do not have any special bond.
    Now mother is a different story, It,s a Irish thing men have strong bonds with their mothers but fuck all with their fathers

    It is not really relevant to the question Ana is asking as she is raising a general issue on relationship between children and parents

    For me it is simple , here is how I would answer it. When my father dies i will be neutral, When my Mother dies I will be relieved and perhaps happy. Unfortunately "Parents " are not all the same, some are great I know a few. Two v good friends lost Parents recently and they had a wonderful relationship with them, naturally it has been tough on both. A tiny tiny silver limning on my cloud when mine die it will be "whatever" and good.

    me and my dad will talk but not much ,

    me and my mother do more talking

    as willie whacker said irish dont have much bond with father , maybe because the father in irish history has been the provider and was at work all day ( i know this has changed lately this was when i was growing up)


    and ive no kids but if i had kids they would be priority number 1 , and would like to have a great realationship with them

    Had a great relationship with my Dad. Plenty in common and he was always there to offer advice. Passed away well over a decade ago now but couldn't have asked any more from him.

    I had good relationship with my parents as long as they've believed, I will fullfill their own dreams, and I will do things, they couldn't do themselves. It all end up, when I have told them eventually directly: No, I am not doing Masters, and: No, I am not going to settle for the sake of being in a relationship. I have asked them: Are you going to love me less, if I don't get the degree, or do you really wanna see me unhappy but married?
    I never got any answer and since then we are just OK.

    Maybe it's normal these days but not in my time. I don't think I ever had a conversation with him in sixteen years. My mother was dead and I don't remember her at all. And as for the whole step mother thing, all I can say is if anybody has kids they shouldn't be allowed remarry. Needless to say I don't have children myself and wouldn't dream of having any.
    But I know some people who can chat away with their kids and it's wonderful to see, even if it also makes me sad.
