Growing up, my parents did everything for me—cooked, cleaned, and even drove me everywhere. Now that I’m older, I want to show them how much I appreciate them, but somehow, it always feels so awkward. I try to spend time with them, ask about their childhood, or even join them in their hobbies, but I worry it comes off as forced. Last week, I cooked dinner for them, and while they smiled, I could tell they missed being the ones in charge. Sometimes, I just want to hug them or say 'I love you,' but the words get stuck in my throat. Why is it so hard to express love to the people who matter most? Have you ever felt this way with your parents? How do you show your appreciation without feeling weird? I’d love to hear your stories and tips—maybe we can figure this out together. ❤️ FamilyRelationships #ParentChildBond #ExpressingLove #AwkwardMoments #FamilyRelationships #ParentChildBond #ExpressingLove #AwkwardMoments
