I voted yes because my mom is awesome enough to more than make up for my drunkard of a step-father, and a deadbeat of a biological father.

If I weren't Miss Mary Sunshine before, it won't help to know that I am the apple of my parents' eyes and the in-laws and I get on famously. They're all exceptionally generous, loving people.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to burst into song.

I get on very well with both my parents, both when I lived at home and when I lived away; they tell me they're proud, love me etc etc.

However I wouldn't say we have a 'great relationship' because maybe the reason we get on so well is because I only share with them the things I know they will approve of, and I generally withold anything that may cause conflict. I like to dander down the path of least resistance. For example, my last trip to New York my parents thought I was interrailing through Europe... Potayto, Potahto.

im sorry, i misread this poll, so im editing my original post. me and my mom have a great relationship, but me and my dad dont..
i tried to look for a tattoo thread, but didnt see one

Im going to do my best and draw something about "pop music good" and a "Bubble gum candy cloud" version of patrice....

PrinceValiant · 10-14-2009, 09:08 PM

I don't think I have anything in common with my parents - hence, not a "great relationship." Not that we don't get along, there's just nothing there.

Ant-LOX · 10-14-2009, 09:15 PM

I'm cool with my mom. But I haven't seen my dad since 2002 when he gave me $40 on my graduation day.

I have no ill feelings towards him though, I can't hold grudges against anyone.

Malicoire · 10-14-2009, 09:31 PM

I voted no.

My dad died when I was a freshman in college, so I went to live with my mom, whom I quickly discovered was a heroin addict when she, without a second thought, stole the $6000 in life insurance I got from my dad's employer and disappeared for 3 weeks leaving a 17 year old to care for his 4 and 12 year old brothers with nothing and no family to turn to.

She's cleaned up and an addiction counselor now, but, though I'm a forgiving person in general, I don't think I can ever really let it go.

I don't walk around mumbling "That fucking cunt," or anything But I'm not ready to disassociate the past.

Doesn't help that she found me on facebook and gives me the "..." every time I post about cracking a beer on the weekend.

Sorry, I got a buzz going, pardon my rambling.

Clownmouth.

I voted yes.

I have a great relationship with both my mom and dad. I can talk to my mom for hours and have a great time doing so. That being said, I have learned to compartmentalize some parts of my life. I don't talk to them about sex nor do I swear in front of them. But I do that only because I know that sort of talk makes them uncomfortable and I respect them enough to watch what I say. They are both active in my life and I don't know what I would do without them.

Is it me, or are a lot of these 'yes'es supposed to be 'no's?
