<human>: Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell

Don't get me wrong, my parents and I get along perfectly fine. We love each other. Nevertheless over the last few years I feel i have almost deliberately distanced myself to them for various complicated reasons. 

Besides I never shared everything that was going on with me with my parents and now I feel sad because some sort of connection has been lost. Like I can't communicate with them well enough. Sometimes I feel I'm hurting them by pushing them aside. I'm afraid that one day it'll be too late and I'll regret not being explicitly thankful for everything they did. I want to thank and hug them everyday and stop whatever suffering they're having, but I just can't. 

I can connect better with my father, because we share a lot of common interests. With my mother is a different story. I can't hold  true conversation with her because...I don't know why, really. Maybe I'll think that she either won't get me or I'll just enhance her suffering. Pushing her away from my private life is a way to protect her I think, like when she casually asks me what i did over the weekend i obviously won't say "I had a bisexual threesome with some friends and after that we got high as a kite, oh by the way, Im fucking my shrink".
<bot>: Help me connect with my parents. How do I let them into my life? How do I show my upmost gratitude and love?
