Since when has parenting been merely transactional? 30 year olds routinely get advice from parents as they progress through life. The entire world is largely better off for it. Wisdom is something best taken in small doses as required.

Of course it’s not transactional, that’s why i said that it’s nice to have a good relationship with your parents even as a grown up.
My only point is that it’s absurd to talk about “abandoning your children” when these children are close to and over 30!
