I think there are times when people are wronged when it is important to forgive and forget. That isn't always helpful with neglectful and abusive parents. Often if contact is kept up, the abusive or neglectful parent continues treating his child pretty much as he did when the child was small.
I think if you feel very angry, stuck, and not enjoying life even when you're away from the person, it needs therapy and other modes of help. But that doesn't necessarily mean it will be possible to have a healthy relationship with the abuser/neglecter.
