I have known several people not to have a very good relationship with thier parents. In fact I know a lady that has bascially used her kids when they were young to get what she wanted in her life. Years later I talked to her daughter and she has no morals for her mother what so every. She told me that all she ever wanted growing up was a mom that loved and really cared for her, instead of using and abusing her. I had a friend as well that she was born into a family and her mother was very young. She hung around the wrong type of people. One night her mother was thrown from a van going down the road at 55 miles per hour. She did not die but, she was completely messed up the rest of her life. Her dad disowned her and refused to care for her. He even denied her to be his child. So her grandparents ended up adopting her and raised her when she was from around the age of 2 or 3. She does have a wonderful relationship with her grandparents/parents now but, her mother died our senior year. As for me I was raised in a very loving christian home with both parents that are still togehter. Yeah they did not do every thing correct but, they did the best they could. Above all I was loved and was show how to love in return. There are so many people that wished they had this type of love and caring for them, what type did you have growing up?

I grew up in a very loving home. My parents worked hard to give us everything the could.They made their mistakes but what parents don't. I knew when I was pregnant with my daughter that I wanted her to have a close relationship with my mom because she could learn alot of wonderful things from her. Now they are inseperable.
