I had never heard of Joyce Maynard. (I'm glad there are some things left to learn and read about. Or what else what would we do when we get old? lol ) I did google.
I don't know what she meant by the quote. But I think one really doesn't know their parents until they are older or gone. Perhaps when we are young we look at them as only to serve our needs. But when we are old(er) we realize they actually were complicated feeling human beings.

You're right. It is so hard to figure them out. But they do them and it works for them. That's what matters.
