I have a relatively good childhood. Relative since I saw all my hardships and emotional challenges today as a springboard for me to at par with the challenges today.It is very hard growing up in a broken family, and I honestly thought that I will be very messed up when I reach my 20's. My life is a not ideal today nor it is a bliss in anyway, but it really amazes me that objectively speaking, my life is not really all bad. I still manage to break a good smile and able to enter in a loving relationship. I can communicate effectively in two languages and 2 dialects and doing very satisfactorily in school. I am really not sure if I can associate my life today with my life before, but I am sure that it is somewhat directly connected. In this light... Would you say that your childhood has affected your life now? In what way?Kindly explain... Thank you very much Make yourselves heard... your opinion matters

This is a good question, but unfortunately the answer is not that simple. I grew up in a united family, I was raised by my 2 parents and they taught me good values in life. Though, I can still trace back some traits of my personality to my childhood. If we we can understand our childhood in a better way, I think that we would be happier in life.
