First of all we seems to have very different ways to deal with our families. Second I still live with the problem.

I was in a single parent home with an alcoholic mother. The issue came to the surface when I was 12 years old and she had fallen and I couldn't wake her up. I called my grandparents. We talked about the issue for a short period of time and by short I mean 5 minutes. Then they swept it under the rug. Every time I brought up the topic I was shot down. Every time I tried to express emotional distress to do the alcoholism and abuse I was told it was my fault. It turned into a huge fight and wasn't worth it. Occasionally I still pick at it but I drains my energy and takes me quite some time to recover. I like you have little feeing for my one parent. I just can't wait until university is over and I can move out. I will never look back.
