If you did a good job raising your kids, they'll be grateful. If they're ungrateful, you must have fucked it up.
I don't see any need to pressure people to like their parents. A lot of people who aren't as lucky as you feel like society is demanding they love people who never made them feel loved. If they had parents who deserved to be loved, they wouldn't need to be told to.
True. I appreciate my parents because I was lucky enough to have parents worthy of love. They don't expect me to pay anything back. All the payback they want is for me to live my best life ❤
