I have awesome parents. They've been married for 46 years and dating since early HS years. I'm an only child so was extremely close to my parents growing up and still am. We've had our challenges, Dad is a recovering alcoholic but it never impacted his parenting (for the most part- a few not so fond memories)...he wasn't abusive or anything. Worked his ass off and was full functioning; had a pretty rough childhood which I attribute a lot of his issues to. His Dad walked out on 3 kids and my Grandma when the kids were all 11 and younger. My Grandma also lost a baby about 6 months after she was born (only daughter).
I nearly lost both of my parents in a single car rollover accident when I was 9 years old. It has physically impacted my mom for her entire life as she was ejected through back windshield of vehicle.
Lot of info shared....but they are great. Amazing Grandparents and Dad has been sober for over a decade.
