Do you get on better with your mother or father?

My mum. Even though she annoys me sometimes. My dad is extremely aggressive and quite distant. He's closer to my twin brother.

For most of my childhood, I got on better with me Dad. He was an abusive prick but when he wasn't angry with me we were best friends. It is by the grace of God that I never ended up with an abusive mate.

For a short while after we left, we maintained a good relationship, mainly because he wasn't around to beat my ass and I saw that ass beating as normal, so I never thought of it. My Mom, who I don't remember much in my life, became increasingly violent and I fucking hated her.

But now, I can say (oddly enough), I get along better with my Mother. We worked things out and now we are fairly good friends. My father is gone now, with his new family and has little interest in his old life (my sister and I). He also did many illegal things that damaged my Mom and by proxy, myself and my sister. I wouldn't want to work things out with him even if he WAS willing.

You should have asked if we are male or female.

I wonder if more girls get on better with their mums and more boys get on better with their dads or this just doesn't matter at all.

Neither. My dad's an ass and I dislike my mom.

I get a long better with my dad, even though he wasn't a big part of my life growing up because we never lived togethor and he didn't come to see me often enough. My mom is a fucking train wreck, that's all I'm gonna say. My dad may not have been committed enough to his parental duties, but atleast he's easy going and pleasant to be around.

I'm shocked that mum has beaten dad here, since as far as I know, women are born with a distinct deficit of perspective, and therefore overreact to everything...is this...not the case???

My mum. Even tho we don't exactly get along. It's a love hate relationship

My dad, definitely.

My mother but they both drive me insane sometimes.

Both. Sometimes I would say my mom and sometimes I would say my dad, but I honestly love them both and get along equally with them.

I haven't known my dad for a long time, only as a child and a few times on Facebook.
My mother is most times unbarable.
My father has had his negatives, but when I was with him he'd be a pretty fun guy, despite him being a drunk before I was born.
I don't know my father, but he seems to have changed for the better, yet my mother goes crazy when I have any means of contact with him, just because she doesn't like him.
