INTERNATIONAL Family Drama?
I need your vote: to keep in touch w/ evil folks who abused my parents or not. My parents and rest of the family don't get along. Including grandparents, they cursed, beat, and alienated my parents. They don't talk to each other but kid generation (cousins, me, my bro) were not involved. Later, grandma was in Vegas (without telling our family) when she fell, hit her head and became a veggie after flying back to Asia. She is still in coma in Asia. Grandpa recently got a heart surgery. When my parents wanted to do their duty and sent them allowance $, they rejected it. Since then, they do not talk. My father with diabetes almost passed out from the experience. I have never seen my father so mad and sad. I understand if he wants to never see his parents nor siblings ever again. My parents moved to another country to earn money to pay back all the gambling debt which my grandma accrued and when my grandpa's biz bankrupted. My 2nd aunt grabbed my mom by the hair, threw her on the ground, beat & kicked her while calling her names while she was holding me when I was a newborn baby. My grandma forced my mom to work work work while my dad was away for a year or two in Saudi Arabia to make $ to pay for family debt which I mentioned (my mom eventually moved to Arabia where my brother was born). I got in touch w/ a younger cousin on facebook and grandpa happened to walk by. Grandpa & I talked over the phone a bit. Grandpa wanted my dad to call him. I talked to mom what happened. She was furious that I talked to grandpa. She canceled our dinner plans and doesn't want me to contact her for awhile. She said she is offended that I disregarded their (my parent's) feelings and experience. She said I shouldn't have been involved and I am forcing them to re-live their nightmare. Now I know not to talk to my parents about relatives. Now that I cannot un-ring the bell, I am screwed and only can wish my mom would forgive me. But for the future, I am planning to visit Asia and visit relatives. I do plan to keep in touch w/ folks there. I wanted your opinion if I should respect my parents' feelings and not keep in touch with relatives or I should secretly keep in touch with them. Well, telling them as in my parents? I won't tell them because when I told my mother, she got mad and now she won't talk to me. But should I keep in touch w/ folks in Asia?
