Do you feel loved? That's all that really matters. If you feel that your mom, dad, and siblings love each other, then that's good. Sometimes that's hard to see right up close. Parents aren't always the best teachers, but if they love you, you should see that that's their best strength. I've been told I was a great parent but so many people questioned how I did things--I asked my daughters to be good human beings before following some moral dogma. I was a punk rocker that raised two girls. Other parents for the most part hated me. My girls? They're really great people that are resoundingly respected at their jobs and by their peers. Did they like their upbringing all of the time? Hell no. Do they see value in how they were raised now? Yeah. Good, bad, and ugly they saw that Dad, mohawk and all, was there, day in and day out. That's all that they cared about then or now. It was embarrassing to them then, now it's just how our family was and is.
