I'm curious how many kids just don't care. Like... with all the emotional damage these parents do... does anyone actually care about their parents? Like... really? Spirits? Lol.

I was taught about some reincarnation stuff, yet, simultaneously they say ancestors are in heaven? So... the abusive parents go to heaven? Or I thought they were supposed to be reincarnated? So confusing.

Like jeez, imagine being "in heaven" with your abusive ancestors spirits.

Sorry for ranting, had a recent argument with parents.

It definitely depends on your relationships with your parents. I have a good one with mine, and I have a small altar with my grandparents in my home, but if I had a bad relationship with them it would probably not be a thing.

I have a small altar for my grand parents (whom I have never known) and my mom (she passed away 7 years ago).

I don't actually believe in the spirits and all of that. It's kind of just for aesthetics now and it's nice for my daughter to see my mom's picture. I suppose maybe it's just a bit comforting to me.

But I don't really believe their spirits come back and eat the fruit I put up there.
