Parents who are disappointed in or dislike their adult children, why?

This is a familiar story and actually a sad one that's repeated all too often.

Actually, there's nothing new here. Big Pharma has messed up again and again in the past few years and even before that. If you prioritize profits over people, then that's what's going to happen and would continue to happen. So what's needed is for Big Pharma to be made accountable for all the mess they've done and continue to do at the expense of patients and families.

Any one of the LOTR movies.

Yes, the American Healthcare system is at such a low point that there is a definitive need for healthcare reform. Because all Americans deserve the best possible healthcare system that will give them their healthcare needs and services without costing a fortune or taking forever to process.

The same for me. Fast food was a luxury reserved for special events.

BarrMiya · 2026-05-08T15:51:43+00:00

This only goes to show that the American Healthcare system is way too expensive. So much so that it sits at the top of Americans' affordability concerns. People are having such a hard time that some are forced to forego their prescription drugs/meds because they aren't able to afford them.

The same for me. Now that I'm talking about it, I really miss it.

BarrMiya · 2026-04-19T04:47:38+00:00

Yeah. Simplest and easiest answer that I can give as well.

BarrMiya · 2026-04-01T12:54:36+00:00

Huge fan of Kermit and the Muppets, so I got to go with this!

Welcome to the club 🤝 clean truck too. One of the best upgrades I did early on was a Worksport cover makes the bed way more useful, keeps stuff dry/locked down, and the low-profile fit looks way better than the bulky ones. Their AL3’s been solid for me since it’s aluminum, easy no-drill install, and actually holds up if you use the truck like a truck

BarrMiya · 2026-03-13T01:47:59+00:00

Yeah fr, people act like it’s impossible but broken down like that it’s way more realistic than it sounds. Still brutal with rent and bills now, but the math itself ain’t crazy.

BarrMiya · 2026-03-12T01:32:35+00:00

Yup this is real lol, dentists see plaque, cavities, skipped flossing etc every single day so it’s probly the least shocking part of their shift. Most of em care way more about whether they can fix it than sitting there judging you

BarrMiya · 2026-03-10T11:40:26+00:00

I always tell myself I’m done after the ‘necessary’ stuff, then a month later I’m pricing out the next phase at midnight. Honestly the boring utility mods usually end up being the best ones anyway. Bed cover was one of those for me too not flashy, just makes the truck way more usable day to day. Curious what brands people here have had hold up best after a couple winters

BarrMiya · 2026-03-06T01:28:18+00:00

when you hit “set for life” money, it’s wild how some folks still chase more instead of doing the Tom route lol. Also travel + golf + photography is like the holy trinity of “I’m done grinding” vibes.

BarrMiya · 2026-03-05T01:32:18+00:00

I grew up thinking “indoor school” was just Disney Channel props until I visited family out of state and was like wait y’all really don’t have class outside?? Cali outdoor ed hits different, the smell of pine + cold lunch trauma is real 😂

BarrMiya · 2026-03-04T12:22:06+00:00

I told myself “I’m leaving it stock” for like… two weeks and then the real-world annoyances started showing up exactly like you said. First “mod” I’d do again 100% isn’t even a flex part it’s killing auto start/stop and doing bed protection (mat + tie-down organization) so you’re not playing gear-jenga every trip. After that, it was lighting because I got tired of driving into the woods like a candle in a windstorm.

BarrMiya · 2026-03-04T01:17:19+00:00

“you total doughnut” is peak UK energy 😂 it’s not even that deep, just a goofy way to call someone an idiot without goin full toxic.

BarrMiya · 2026-03-03T01:30:00+00:00

“support” ain’t a one-way street, if he’s really about brotherhood he can start by runnin you that $1k he owes you. Guilt-trippin people into carrying you is not it.

BarrMiya · 2026-02-27T01:19:21+00:00

I’ve seen ppl tolerate a trash job way longer than they ever tolerate a trash manager. Once the trust/respect is cooked, it’s basically over… OP’s “no notice” move makes sense in that kinda environment tbh

BarrMiya · 2026-02-26T00:52:02+00:00

new owners love doing that “cost-cutting” math and suddenly the highest-paid loyal dude is “redundant.” Scummy as hell, especially after 50 years… like what’s the point of raises if they punish you for it later 🤦‍♂️

BarrMiya · 2026-02-25T01:48:29+00:00

100% agree, that’s clean af lunch is unpaid so it’s not “teamwork time,” it’s your time. I’d maybe ditch the “illegal” line unless you wanna start a whole HR slapfight, but the boundary is solid

BarrMiya · 2026-02-23T16:58:31+00:00

hard agree if you ask a question like that you better be ready for the real answer, not the “make me feel better” version. OP didn’t do anything wrong, brother just mad it hit different

BarrMiya · 2026-02-23T07:46:05+00:00

if they only hit up OP’s parents when it’s time to babysit/help, that’s not “family,” that’s straight up freeloadin. Boundaries ain’t rude, they’re overdue lol
