I would advise you to do what you are most comfortable doing.
It was something that came up in the family therapy session I did with them in January. The therapist told my dad that I want dad to contact me more, and my dad brought up the one other time that I got mad at him and was like "what if I talk to her and this happens?" It felt good when the therapist told him he's a parent so he has to suck it up. My mom was also very scared of going to that family session because she didn't want everyone criticizing her. They're not good with anger or criticism.

Hm I guess I'm most comfortable letting them make the next move so I guess that's what I'll do. I live in a different country than them so I don't see them, just email or Skype.
