One-quarter of adult children estranged from a parent
(The Hill) — More than one-quarter of young adults are estranged from one or both parents, or have been, a finding that suggests a societal shift away from the traditional bonds of family.
Whats a marriage last five years now days? Thousands upon thousands of dollars so a bride can be queen for a day and you know they will be divoreced in no time. Stupid. Kids are spoiled and when everything doesn't go their way they have no skills to work a relationship. I may have read in here the answer to a realtionship is learning to tolerate. I believe that is very true. How much do you want to tolerate. Sure love, respect, good buddies all that is important. When I get pissed for some stupid assed thing my wife does I remember I do stupid assed stuff too that she chooses to tolerate. That means you don't try to change each other, you learn to put up with it. Now if your wife turns into a cold hearted bitch that's one thing. However, my wife is far from a mean and vindictive person. I know this. So, to me she's a damn good catch. This article, I wonder if it was a specific race that was focused on.
Of course they are. Destruction of the family is a cornerstone of frankfurt school marxism:
The 11 Point Plan of the Frankfurt School
1. The creation of racism offences.
2. Continual change to create confusion.
3. The teaching of sex and homosexuality to children.
4. The undermining of schools’ and teachers’ authority.
5. Huge immigration to destroy identity.
6. The promotion of excessive drinking.
7. Emptying of churches.
8. An unreliable legal system with bias against victims of crime.
9. Dependency on the state or state benefits.
10. Control and dumbing down of media.
11. Encouraging the breakdown of the family.
One of the main ideas of the Frankfurt School was to exploit Freud’s idea of ‘pansexualism’ – the search for pleasure, the exploitation of the differences between the sexes, the overthrowing of traditional relationships between men and women. To further their aims they would: “• attack the authority of the father, deny the specific roles of father and mother, and wrest away from families their rights as primary educators of their children.
• abolish differences in the education of boys and girls.
• abolish all forms of male dominance – hence the presence of women in the armed forces.
• declare women to be an ‘oppressed class’ and men as ‘oppressors’.
My heart goes out to you. I've not been fantastic, but when all they will/can listen to is the counter party, and the counter party knows that child was the ONLY element keeping you in the marriage, you are forked. I wasted my life for this.
Like the 'Texas Defense" for homicide - needed killin' - there are certain parents that need leavin.' My mother and my 'aunt' were both raised by my grandma, but only my mother was actually adopted. My 'aunt' (in parens because she was never officially adopted) was born out of wedlock. This was back in the 1920s, when it was totally not accepted in York, Pennsylvania high society. He mother, whom I met on several occasions, was a petty, spiteful woman. She wouldn't accept her, but she wouldn't give her up for adoption, either. So my aunt was constantly back and forth.
The last straw was a few years ago when her mother - who was now a widow - called her up and told her that she had changed her will and was giving all her money to the Red Cross. My aunt replied that if that was what she wanted, so be it. About a week later, her mother (who didn't drive) called and said she needed a ride over to the mall. My aunt said that maybe there was somebody over at the Red Cross who could give her a ride to the mall.
Shortly thereafter, my aunt and her mother visited a lawyer and got a new, non-contestable will made up.
I am estranged from mine too. Single mom made me a latchkey kid, put me out when I was 12 for getting picked up by the cops. Met dad when I was 13, he was a rough guy who left me in a private Christian school in KY my senior year, moved to FL and never paid the tuition.
Yea just sounds like the article is talking about people that are old enough that they shouldnt need parents anymore (though most probably needed better parents when they were young). Its just more recognized these days that blood isnt much more than an accident of birth and a true family is chosen (whether related by blood or not).
My ex's idea of parenting is to throw money and gifts at the kids. She was a friend, not a parent. I stayed firm in my convictions. Now, one doesn't talk to her and is following in my footsteps as an engineer, the middle one is doing well and doesn't want her mother's toxic input, and the third is still suckling at the teat of dollars. So I'm batting over 600 which is good. They are slowly starting to see through the veil of cash and figuring out that the one that loved them in the end was me and not the wallet.
Our son got pissed off at us when my wife and I called him on som things he was doing. Left the family because we told him that what he was doing was wrong and dangerous. The things that happened to him over the next year or so were horrific but brought him back to us. He managed to get an advanced degree in a very difficult field despite. He has also rediscovered a good measure of faith. Presently going through some severe health issues. Without us he’d have not done well. But we have our son back
That's the Plan. The government is now your family..

Good and bad. I mostly cut ties with the family black sheep. I'll still see them and have a beer with them but keep the wife and kids away.

I haven't seen my girls since they were 14 and 12. Their mother taught them to hate me.

What's the percentage of fatherless kiddos these days again?
