If my dad had grown up using a computer, I feel like life would’ve been a little more balanced for us. Even if he couldn’t support us financially, he could have passed down valuable knowledge or taught us skills that would benefit us today.

I even bought a house for my mom and dad. But for reasons only my mom knows, she refuses to stay there. My dad has gone there too, but for reasons only he knows, he refuses to sleep in any of the bedrooms. He sleeps in the living room, changes his clothes there, and does almost everything there.
