Ok....can understand mooku's situation.
At least your father walked away.
My mother will raise high drama, and even block your way out of
watching her play her 'i am so pitiful mama' drama roles till I
totally lose my temper & my sanity.
Sometimes, when you need to discuss something, is because you see
how simple it is, by merely talking about it, discussing and
finding yoru solutions thru what you see as black and white.
But parents, or anyone in a different position who has been
managing and experienced as much as they do....think differently.
So they dont want to talk.
Mine was a reversal of roles....where previously my mother is the
superior being.....but times changes, where I am the more
superior...and she resented that and give me hell, at the most
critical moment, acting the bimbo she is.
You have to hang in there. And best if you do consult the other
elders to sound them out to find out the rationale of them
(preferably sama sama age as your father), before you reason with
your father.
Most times, when they walk away, is because they feel threatened.
Their superiority is at stake.
