I hate having old parents, I (21F) have both my parents still with me luckily (M69) and (63F) but I hate that they had me so old.
I’m finally growing into adulthood where I could enjoy their company but they’re old now too. It’s 3:39 am and I’m sobbing because my dad is going to turn 70 soon enough and I’m so scared.
Sometimes I purposely don’t pick up the phone so he will leave me a voice mail I can keep if he passes just in case.
I’m so scared of the future without them. I don’t want to lose my mommy and daddy. I’m just now healing from trauma I had when I was little and I spent years being bitter and wanting away from them but now I just want to hug them forever.
I’m so scared I can’t stop crying..they mean the world to me and they’re the only family I have besides my pets..
I’ve told my mom this before and she said she worried when she was 30 and her parents didn’t die until she was 50 but thats the thing..she had them until she was 50 YEARS OLD.
If I’m lucky mine will be around maybe until I’m 30-35 that’s too young. I want to take them on vacations with me, have dinners, have the life I want them to experience, everything but what if they get too old before that?
What if they see me not get married before then? I’m so scared why do parents have to die? I just want my parents to be in their 50s..I need more time..
