Making a Mends
Say you live in New York City and you haven't seen your dad or responded to any letters he sen in 3 years because he left your mom to pursue his career. Now your mom is making you spend the summer with him in North Carolina...are you going to try to make a mends with your dad or totally ignore him?

ReplyDeleteI would take advantage of the situation that I'm being put in. I would want to see him and ask him questions as to why he did what he did to my mother. I think after time has passed having a relationship with my father is more important than holding a grudge.
ReplyDeleteWell now I would be really mad at my mom. It would be hard to get over that because you have kept that hatred in your heart for so long. I guess the mother has gotten over the divorce and she was the one who actually got left, so it would be easier to get over it myself. I would still be very mad at him, but I would try to get over it if I had to go there anyway. I would probably be a bratt and make him feel bad for leaving us and have him spoil me rotten...especailly if he left for his career he better be making lots of money. :p
ReplyDeleteI would be very upset with my mom for making me spend the summer with him. I would make sure that my disappointment in him was known. Although if I was going to be forced to spend the summer with him that I would try to get to know him better and have him get to know me. Even though I would still be angry at him for abandoning me but if he wanted to make up for it and felt bad about what he had done then I would try to forgive him.
ReplyDeleteI think that I would want answers first. That would really hurt to have your dad choose his career over his kid. If he is genuinly sorry that he left then I would try to make amends with him. But if he doesn't regret it at all then no I wouldn't. I wouldnt want to waste my time trying to make up with someone who doesnt really love me because it just means that I could get hurt again.
