Is it your choice or theirs?
I have not spoken to my Mother for at least 40 years and do not know if she is still living.
Unfortunately she beat her children without mercy before leaving. She left when I was 7.
I went to see her when I was 19? and asked why such brutal beatings and she had no satisfactory answer.
I have 4 siblings, all of whom fled Tasmania because of the sad home situation.
I have no idea where two of them are.
One died of alcohol induced injuries aged 32.
I tracked down the whereabouts of my younger brother whom I last spoke to in 1995.
His phone number was in my mobile for over two years before I finally rang.
That was maybe 4 years ago.
Got an automated answering machine with no owner’s name. Left a message, never heard anything.
I haven’t spoken with my sister since 2014, when my aunt died I was executor to her will, she accused me of trying to cheat her from her share, I’d never cheat anybody let alone my own flesh and blood, I don’t even know if she’s still alive, it’s a shame really as we did have a good relationship before, if she made contact, I’d be open to reconciliation…

Sad how some family members lose all decorum when parents pass away.
Probably many on my Father’s side. Most 1st cousins have passed, but they did have kids, don’t know any of them.
