I grew up with my friends instead of my family. My family was all messed up. My parents lived together but they werent together. They really never payed attention to us kids. They were too caught up on themselves. So my three siblings and I hung out with my friends all the time for years and years. They protected me and my siblings. I consider my friends my family. How about you?

Sad to hear this, it is very seldom nowadays to see closely knit family . I have a good relationship with my family, same with my husband's whom I consider my family too. I just hope you are in the right company of friends who can fill the gap your parents have missed :)

friends and family both are very very important pasrt of ones life we cant live with out a family in the same way we even cant imagin a life without a friend 2 share our feeling
but we should give them eqalt time neglecting dfamily ang going with friends alone is not a right thing i feel if u spend some time with ur family try 2 understand them try 2 solve their problems would b better just think of it ones am sorry if am wrong
bye have a g8 day
