The verb "to show" is also another way of saying "to show up". Note that it doesn't replace the phrase "to show somebody up (at something)", only "to show up somewhere".

The slight difference between "showing" somewhere and "showing up" somewhere, is showing up can be random, unexpected or planned, but "showing" always happens at a planned meeting.

As an American, this might sound bad, but when you're an adult, all adult relationships are voluntary at their core.

It's not uncommon for the grandparents of American children to be in a completely different state than their grandchildren. Their children will move, maybe for business, maybe after getting married, who knows. The children's children will do the same. Maybe the grandparents will move for retirement.

Distance makes it hard to be involved in any relationship, and this is especially true when it's someone who doesn't have any direct involvement in your life and who hasn't affected it in any noticeable way. Your parents raised you, and hopefully love you. If you love them back, you'll care. Grandparents are just kind of a phantasm in America that live across the country and send Christmas cards with a couple bucks every so often.

Combine this with how large America is (hehe) and there's little to no chance Jimmy Jr. is gonna fly cross-country for some burgers and beer with pop pop.

Call your parents and tell them you love them.

If you spend enough time with drooling, demented old people who tell you the same story 3 times a day every day of the year, you'll see there's nothing fucked up about it. Past a certain point old people become more of a burden and annoyance than children.

Not necessarily. You can commit suicide if you desire to be young your whole life. It's what I plan to do.
>>
>>56492131

The richer a country's individuals are, the less important family connections become. It's a sad consequence, but it is inevtiable on average. It can also be a good thing. There are some who argue that this kind of family or "clan" mentality is why a lot of countries remain poor even today. They just hire their idiot cousin instead of making a rational decision, which means that you end up with a lot of groups not really working together to achieve the best results, but just looking out for their own.

That being said, I really need to go visit my grandparents and my uncle while they're still here.

>When, not very long ago, Terry Pratchett's father was given a year to live, Pratchett père took it, on the whole, philosophically. Father and son had plenty of time to "have those conversations that you have with a dying parent", and to reminisce about his father's time in India during the war. At one point, said Pratchett, in last year's Dimbleby lecture, his father suddenly said, "'I can feel the sun of India on my face,' and his face did light up rather magically, brighter and happier than I had seen it at any time in the previous year.

I'm 28 and have lived at home since uni too. No reason to move out unless I get a job in Canada. Just feels like you have to work so hard and get that money taken away with huge rent payments.


Plus more disposable income for hobbies, or conversely less time spent working

I want as much income towards fitness, health, supplements, pleasure, cars, hobbies, electronics, cat, gardening etc. as possible

It's depressing to see how disconnected white families are. For most, their immediate family might as well be their extended family. And their extended family might as well not even exist.

Couple that with not having many friends and you can understand why they end up going on shooting sprees.

Asian families are much tighter knit, which means a better support network.

Wish I had grandparents to "respect". Both Grandfathers died before I could get to know them, 1 grandma is in austria and is on bad terms with my dad, and my mum's side grandma is also on bad terms with my mum and is also a whore (cheated on my grandad back in the day, they stayed together and gave the kid up for adoption because Pentecostalism).

At least my kids will have good grandparents on my side..
>>
>>56514328

That's the thing, I don't actually like most of them.

I just like enough of them that when we all get together it's pretty enjoyable. You'd have had to have done something pretty fucked to be a pariah or else you're just weird as all hell.

My mom's parents are amazing. They paid for my wrestling, varsity jacket, field trips. I would cook with grandma and watch documentaries with grandpa

My dad's parents practically disowned us because my dad called them out on their shit. I would offer them to come to my birthday or something and they wouldn't. I called them telling them how I qualified for regionals in wrestling and how they should come cheer me on because it's free and not that far. They said they would. 2 hours into the tournament I kept trying to find them. I ended up taking 8th place. The only people I saw in the crowd were my parents and the other grandparents
>>

That's not up to debate. How upset are you at your parents or grandparents that you're not at least friends with them?

If they hold an event you're not obligated to go. You still should give it some consideration.

I only know one of my grandads. The one whom I don't know disowned our side of the family when his wife lost the family fortune gambling and our side didn't bail out his factory. I think he's dead now. I wish I knew him; our "side" stayed with the English and the Scots in our family, their "side" stayed with the Germans. Honestly I just want to know more about our family, mostly for if I ever have kids and they wonder about what we are.

Apparently he went nuts at one point lol he burned all his tax and government documents some time in the 70's. He also burned a shitton of our family documents, like previous generations' birthcards, letters, banking stuff, and other papers. Nobody knows why except his wife. She doesn't talk to anyone anymore. She just rots in a nursing home and refuses to speak to anyone. He must have said something to her, but nobody knows what or why. She sure as hell doesn't trust the Scottish side though, so I probably will never know.

This got real heavy all the sudden. m'bad.

oddly enough there comes a day where you realize you'll have less freedom if you're on your own.

Its easy to underestimate life while mommy and daddy do the heavy lifting, but once its just you all alone in the world doing all the chores, all the work, and handling every issue personally. You'll wonder where your free time went and how "free" you really are.

Life sucks no matter what you choose desu.

Mexican families tend to be much more tight thanks to traditional catholic parents being the norm (not so sure about these new generations though).
In the US they cling even more to each other and their communities because it is all they have over there and they can't relate to gringos. Also it doesn't help that their children get pregnant/get other mexican bitches pregnant when they're still young as fuck so their grandsons have to live with them as well.

They deserve their own place to live in. Apparently you don't understand that portion of our culture.

My grandfather is the last grandparent I have. He's got a house next to the football stadium with his cats because he loves both. He lives about an hour away from him and I come and visit him pretty often. During football season I'm there almost every weekend to attend the games with him.

>You can't reason with them?

Your parents will never treat you like an equal until you have moved out, attained a stable career that pays well enough for you to buy your own house, and preferably or married or at least in a serious relationship. Living under the same roof as them means they'll never actually respect you, and you'll feel like you're still a kid.
