My Relationship With My Parents

Decent Essays
The relationship I choose for this assignment is with my parents. Our relationship has turned out to be truly uncheerful in some parts of our lives. We tried to do some activity together once in a while, however, it only made us feel better for a while, at least for me. What has happened in the past still haunts me, I’m supposed to move on by now, however, it seems a lot more difficult to me than I thought.

So I can partially understand being he didn’t have the chance to grow up with the family to know them, that’s why he has different personalities than what my granny wanted him to. Something that we should do is have a vacation together as a family more often to form our relationship

    When observing the McCandless’s authoritarian family dynamic, I found that I was able to make a lot of comparisons with Chris’s relationship with his parents and the relationship I have with my own.
