Well said. That's pretty much how it is with me and my parents.
My mom is completely wonderful and is a true friend to me.
My dad and I get along peacefully most of the time but I often disagree with the way he handles personal/family issues which makes me keep my distance at times in order to maintain that peaceful relationship. My dad is also "selectively supportive" of me and can be very controlling (besides the fact that I am an independant adult). I know I am making him sound awful but it's not that bad. Just fundamental differences between the two of us that I have learned to deal with in a healthy manner
