Give up

[TheBooG]

My only desire is to have a good relationship with both my kids, they don’t want to be around me I ask them why and they don’t tell me the truth to spare my feelings, I can’t force them to hang out with me I have to respect their feelings

Maybe try working on yourself for a little bit. I’m sure you do, but maybe if you’re happier then they may want to be around more?.. I’m not sure, there is always trying to get them into a family therapist session to try and let things out in a safe environment. It depends on a lot of factors , and I’m no expert, but sometimes I am the kid that pushes myself away from my mother.. so feel free to ask anything

As a child i never could connect with people, I thought if I have children I would finally be able to connect but unfortunately They don’t connect with me either. It’s very hard to live know that I’m all alone in this world

Honestly I regret a lot of the things I said to my parents as a teenager. Maybe it’s just a difficult time for them too? I don’t think you’re alone, maybe just be supportive and they’ll come back around?
