A lot of people think I grew up with just my brother and me, but mom was there even when she wasn't. We had a good household.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When I was young, I grew up in a family of working-class people. Not just my parents, but my extended family, as well.
My siblings and I were friends with the boys who would become our stepbrothers - we grew up on the same street. I feel very special to have these amazing people in my life and if we hadn't all moved into this big house together I think I would have missed out on that, because we would have drifted apart.
I grew up in the kitchen, mostly with my grandfather, my mother and my aunt Raffy.
I grew up in a great family.
My sister was always very motherly, babysitting and stuff.
I'm from a very close-knit family, and there was something very... I guess you could say normal, about it, and I so appreciate that. We all ate dinner together every single night, and my mom stayed at home with us. I owe a lot to my parents.
I've never had siblings, I didn't grow up in a big family; it was just me and my single mom. And hectic family dysfunction was actually something that I craved.
I grew up with my mom; it was just the two of us.
I grew up as the only child, and we did not have a large family. So for me and my mother, our friends tend to become our family.
I shared a room with my parents until I was 7, and I lived with my uncles and aunts and my cousins and my grandfather... so the house was always full of people.
