I'm exactly the same with mine. Had a real love/hate relationship when a teenager, but ever since leaving for uni at 18, we get on so well. They are like mates now
You not worried that bacause your parents weren't about that you wont know what to do to be a good parent? Like father like son and all that? Not saying you will just asking. And I get on fine with my parents. Am actually going for a pint with the old twats when my dad's got back from fishing.
My mam's sound, she's the best mother I could ask for but I'm fucking sick of living with her. I don't see my dad a lot, once a month at most really, but I get on with him better now I don't live with him and only see him on the odd occasion for a 'catch up'.
me mam n dad are the bestest, they're put up with so much shit from me over the years when i was the rebellious tennage from hell but now that im all good we get on so well!! plus i can literally talk to them bout anything as they know all my secrets from my youth!! they're properly class and i love them both so much!!
