Foot,

Sorry to hear about what your dad put your family through.

Some people say they liked society the way it was structured back then...like the song they sing in the opening of "All In The Family"


I'm glad for some of the changes in society...especially that women have more career and educational opportunities now than they did back then. There's less pressure on them to hurry up get married and have kids and thankfully they are mostly less dependent on men now.

I respect "traditional households" and I grew up in but , as you pointed out....it's a trap sometimes.

Rest in Peace to your Mother. May she find the peace that she couldn't enjoy here.


*On another note, I don't attend funerals or services for people who were known to be bad people, relatives or not. I can't force myself to sit through the BULL where people are lying and saying good things about them.
