How’d that happen, I wonder??? This would be, a SERIOUS case of ROLE reversal that we’re, currently, experiencing here (kinda like how those television stations froze, with the message of “We’re experiencing some technical difficulties”??? Yeah, it’s, kinda, like that!)
When I’d become your parent, and you, my child, but, I was, your child, and I’m not done, getting taken care of by you yet, and you’d needed me, to fulfill that role of a parent to you? How is that even FAIR??? It isn’t, but, it’s not like, I have a choice, you did, give birth to me, feed me, clothe me, gave me, EVERYTHING I’d needed, physically, to survive!
not my photograph…
When I’d become your parent, and you, my child, I’m so totally NOT going to take care of you (that’s what a part of my mind thought…), but, you need to take care of mom/dad, you must, they had you, they put food in your stomach, clothes on your back, and now, they’re elderly, and deteriorating away, so, it’s YOUR turn to PAY them BACK………
When I’d become your parent, and you my child, this, is what’s currently happening, ALL over with the MIDDLE generations, those with parents still alive, and their own young too, and, this MIDDLE generation is still, STUCK. When I’d become your parent, and you, my child, I’m NOT equipped to handle you, mom/dad, AS my child, I don’t have a child, you’re supposed to be the ADULT in my life, but you never were, and now, you demand that I take care of you??? Why should I???
