Are there are any parents here that don't have a relationship with their children?

2. well, I'm not the parent

but one of my brothers has no relationship with any of us, including our mother.

It's a bit to do with his wife I think.

3. Does your family not like his wife?

Or does the wife not like the family?

6. his wife has basically said, if you want me, then it's me and only me

10. well, yep.

he used to have a particular hobby, he was very good at, could have made an incredible living on it too which was his dream. She also said it's me or your hobbie...and he sold everything. Lemme tell ya, she ain't all that either....he's never met my daughter, we were also once very close. Only two years between us. It makes me very sad and angry.

8. I have several friends who don't have a decent relationship with their parents.

I can't imagine that. I had a fantastic relationship with my mom and dad and I like to think I have a good one with my kids. Somedays better than others, obviously.
