My mum understands about me and Sid, a lot better than she did, last year. We have our relationship back, now. :O)

My mum and dad's house used to have a barn on its land which is now owned by Senator John Kerry, and resides in the Rocky Mountains as part of the holiday home he has with his wife (who is the widow of John Heinz III, the guy who bought it in the first place).

My dad has Narcissistic Personality Disorder and my mother is an enabler. Recently, they mailed back all the pictures of my children I have sent them over the years with no explanation.

They ask me for money at least once a month. I never send any.

They have been married for 57 years and should never had had children.

When in doubt, ask an autistic. Chances are, they're obsessed with what you need to know. :roll:

Autism Speaks will NEVER speak for me

My mother wants to move every year and my father was his father's scapegoat.

My genetic mom was a knowledgeable and convincing public speaker.
My genetic dad was not so good at talking but very good at writing.
My adoptive dad ... : :roll: was a good fighter, a savant musician, a fake psychic, and had a pornography disorder.
My adoptive mom was the cruelest wickedest person I've ever met on the planet...and she'd let me know it.
My other dad neither adoptive or biological but by marriage, practiced animal sacrifice; believing that the creatures soul could be captured and bound for use in some sort of black magic tribal magic sort of way.

My dad accused my mom of being a glutton, saying that she thinks "Oh, we're finished breakfast; I'd better start making lunch." And, "Oh, it's such and such a time, it's time for lunch whether we're hungry or not." :lol: He once said that she ate five or six meals a day.

My father as far as I know, now lives relatively close to us, like several dozen kilometers from us.

Eew. You have my sympathies. I had that combination the opposite way round.

My parents are both deceased.

My father loved small dogs, needlepoint, and pottering in the garden shed. He was the kind of guy I'd have really got on with better if he'd been raised in a different era that didn't have quite such backward views about women.

My mother used to fantasize that people mistook her for royalty. Her favorite hobbies were complaining and picking lint off other people's clothing.

My mother just sold a meadow belonging to her because she wants to spend the money on... a proper tomb for her parents, quite as if the dead needed it :?
