In reply to the discussion: how old were you when you forgave your parents? [View all]panader0
(25,816 posts)54. I had great parents. They were flawed, but loved me.
My father was a career Air Force officer and we had major problems when
I opposed the war in Vietnam. He wanted me to enlist and I wouldn't.
As I grew older I was able to see their lives more clearly. I would give
almost anything to see them again. My Dad would be 101 years old now, and my Mom would be 108.

For me they need no forgiveness. They loved us, we loved them and now miss them.

It was between me and my Mom. And I was in my late twenties. And it was mutual. (n/t)
