((((((((jan))))))))) thanks.

One of my biggest worries is my dad. He can be 'good', but sometimes, he just doesn't think and say things that are hurtful. We (mom and I ) used to tell him that he must enjoy making people upset. Why can't he think before the talks?

Stuck in the middle is right. I need to support my mother. But dad's very old fashion when it comes to 'children' talking back or standing up to their parents, no matter how right the 'children' are.

If he and I get into a fight, mom would come between us. If the argument's between them, I usually let mom take care of herself - which she can do very well, but now, I don't think she has that kind of energy.

I dunno. Have to take it as it comes, I guess. hugs
