His half-sister was pretty much raised by her other grandparents. I didn't ever get the memo that I could quit parenting. Not that I would have allowed my kids to grow up with my parents.(October 4, 2023 at 2:48 pm)arewethereyet Wrote: I seem to recall that you didn't have much to do with your father but I didn't realize you were also estranged from your mother.
Who raised you?
I was raised by my father and grandparents. For most of my youth, I swapped trailerholds on a weekly basis. One week at the residence of my father, the next week at the residence of my grandparents, and so on. Only when my younger sister began to act out by trying to hook up with adult men did this arrangement cease. I stayed with my father and she stayed with our grandparents.
Husband had over a dozen step-mothers though he only interacted with a couple of them. He can't even name them all.
I'm your huckleberry.
