Person Sparks Debate By Saying “Its Parents Fault If Their Adult Children Don’t Talk To Them”

A lot of people blame children for dumping their parents when they grow old.

It might seem cruel to just isolate your parents when they are old or leave them in an old home when they need you, that is why most people blame the children for being in the wrong when something like this happens. But this Reddit user revealed the bitter truth; it is mostly the parents’ fault. The old generation has an ego problem. They refuse to believe they can be wrong when it comes to an issue and they stick to their side of the argument. To make any kind of relationship work, both parties need to be compromising and understand one another. When one party refuses to budge, the other has no choice but to separate to keep their mental peace. You are very blessed if you have a healthy family that can communicate and understand each other.

In my opinion, nothing should come before your own mental peace. If your house is suffocating you and is destroying you inside you, need to leave. You are not obliged to live with your parents if they are toxic and make it hard for you to breathe. So this Redditor made complete sense to me.

Other Redditors added their opinions too.
