My dad isn't apolitical. He was active in Breton autonomist, cultural and nationalist movements, fighting the ultra-centralizing culture-quashing Jacobin craps. He also probably got on the French police's black list in the 60-70s. Definition of FF.

My parents are the Cleavers, so they were basically the best parents in the world until I was 12.  They're still excellent, but, especially in my mom's eyes, I'll never grow up, so going back home can be a pain.  Also, they're not at all nerds, so sometimes we have problems relating.  Still, I wouldn't trade them for anyone.

My parents are extremely supportive, which is all I need. My mum's a small "l" libertarian and my father is a populist, so I find it amusing how they always decide to vote for the same candidates (usually for moral issues).

I adored my father, and I still think he is one of the most remarkable persons I will ever have had the privilege to know, or will ever know. As to my mother, we had issues, but at 35, I told her the statute of limitations had run, and that any personal problems I had, and I had and have them, were mine alone to deal with, and that blaming her as a "mature" adult was for losers, and that I would do all I could, to make our remaining years together amicable. In that I think, unlike some other matters, I succeeded. My mother is still "alive" at this point, but insentient, and does not have a clue whom I am. I hope that I have enough "notice" to off myself if I perceive I am going down that road.

Gosh, I still miss my father to this day. Dad, I finally got fit, Give me a high five! Smiley
