The Death Of A Parent Affects Even Grown Children Psychologically And Physically

Apr. 25, 2023
There are plenty of reasons why it can be difficult to connect with your father. Maybe your relationship isn’t exactly a model of emotions and vulnerability. Maybe you’re both too busy to sit down and have a meaningful chat. Maybe you don’t know how to even approach such a topic. When he’s gone, ([link removed]) though, all of those reasons will turn into regrets ([link removed]) and thoughts of “What if…?” when it comes to what may have been. The point? Don’t waste time, succumb to pride, or entertain doubt when considering what you’d like to know about your father.
Connecting with your father as an adult adds far more nuance to the relationship, too. It’s much different from getting a lecture as a punk teenager home past curfew. Dad’s wisdom is likely poignant, his life experience is well-documented, and his words are meaningful. Of course, we don’t have the conversation because dad also probably has his historical biases, his myopic ideas, and perhaps a lack of self awareness (or self-work).It’s worth pushing past all this and trying to had a conversation with dad as a parent, a friend, a mentor, and a man. If you have the chance to ask him, don’t let it pass you by.
