I'll begin today’s post with a question.
What form of behavior will a parent showcase; with a case study of the father; that will provoke a child, to seek attempts of escape?
I know you're wondering why the question. It streams from a conversation I had with a friend some days ago. I inquired why he never visited for the holidays after the school sessions ended.
His explanation boiled down to the constant altercations with his father. And to avoid any probable verbal disaffection, the distance was a gainful solution to both parties involved.
This brought into remembrance, a family friend; of the female gender, who moved out of her parents house after she openly informed them; if she was to abide in the same home with her parents, she would not be favorably inclined to marriage. More especially the behavior of her father towards her mother,
And this, is but a few of the life illustrations.
This prodded my source of inquiry. When did family relationships become so hostile, one decides to escape the clutches of the other? When do fathers become so overbearing, they unknowingly encourage daughters or sons to seek refuge in a different apartment?
Or would you say its the fault of the kids who all of a sudden become independent?
