Yea, I can understand your dad’s frustration. I’m really sorry that your mom isn’t and hasn’t been there for you the way that you needed her to be. I can’t imagine what’s that like since I’ve had quite the opposite kind of mom. You know… there isn’t anything that you can do except for let her know how you feel. And even that might cause you greater pain since she probably won’t react in the way that you would hope for. It stinks. Luckily tho, you have a supportive and loving dad which is a fantastic thing. Focus on him. Tell him how much you love and appreciate him and all that he did/does for you. Keep that bond strong because having a strong bond with one parent is better than not having one at all.
