re: Anyone else not on speaking terms with a parent?

They kept asking me to pay back some loans I had borrowed from them. It became uncomfortable and I kept changing the subject, but they persisted.

This my friends is why you never loan money to anyone. Especially family members.

My grandmother was bad about this. She loaned my parents money to buy their first home. They divorced when I was 10 and things got ugly. My grandmother wound up suing my dad. I don't have all the details because I was a kid, but she wound up losing the suit and they hated each other till the day they died.
