thank you. ..
I think it was both. Something else happened on friday evening as well.. my dad asked for more money.. he lost all his inheritance, and I have been kind of supporting him for the past few years..
And he keeps asking for more.. And I just agreed without saying anything. I think he should be more responsible. And he should try to do something productive. He has a few properties left - a house, few lands etc.. But he somehow has never managed to make any money. He lived fully off of his dad's inheritance, and little bit with my mother's inhertiance, and now he is depending on me.
He could be much more responsible.. He is not. And I don't say too much to him about it. And I feel bad about doing it silently.. Anyway, I have been trying to tell him to be more responsible but he thinks he can make more money by investing into stocks.. And he is not making anything. And I have been telling him to back off of it for the past 15 years. He doesn't listen.
So that made me more depressed.. Not so much about supporting him as such, atleast now I can afford to, and I feel it is my duty as a daughter to take care of my parents. Just that complete irresponsibility irks me a lot. He is pretty knowledgable, and is capable.. He should be able to find some way to make some money if he wants to. He keeps blaming indian economy for it.As always, I didn't say anything to him, pretended I was fine with continuing to support him. And just took it all inside.
