First, I'm sorry if I'm being modernist and a sin (if I am, I'm happy to hear a sermon in the post comments)
I was recently on TIA Catholics and read this comment from a user
Hi,
I'm 28 years old, I want to live my life, I support my mother, and she even took my nephew to live at home.
I ended my relationship of 9 years, because I can't leave home to get married and build my family.
What should I do?
the website owners basically responded that he is right to abstain from the pleasures of the world to take care of his mother and nephew etc!
Now I'm sorry but I felt sorry for him,
1 9 years of wasted relationship
2 he feels trapped and desperate for being in this situation
3 From what I understand, he supports his finances and does not necessarily need medical care
4 From what I understand, the nephew came to live against the vote
sorry, I grew up in the interior of a city in the south of Brazil and I knew some people who were in this situation and they were extremely unhappy and resentful about the past, feeling that their life was wasted!
I know that we have to honor our parents and that this is non-negotiable, but I really think that we shouldn't romanticize this type of situation!
because it's horrible and not wanted by anyone!
I wish the best for this person
I just want to hear opinions and I really appreciate it!
ps I would have no problem taking care of my parents if they needed it!
