I think I was well brought up, for my father and mother were of one mind regarding the care of the family.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If you think of having a family as being loved as a child, cared for - I did not experience that.
I was brought up in a very ordinary family, in fact, a worker's family. Both my father and mother were ordinary citizens.
I was brought up by my mother and my two sisters, although they're older than me and fled the nest very young, so I was technically raised as an only child, but I was very much loved.
In hindsight, I see the great value of family and how it moulded my life and kept me together. So now family means everything to me.
My mother was the center of the family.
It's wonderful to be part of a family that cares so much about others.
Family was real important in putting me on my path. I'm so blessed to come from a home with a mother and a father.
My mother and my father were very nurturing and wonderful examples of how to live your life.
My family was very unorthodox. My mother was very eccentric and amazing. She always treated us like adults.
I grew up in a very open-minded family. My father died when I was very little, so my mother was really, really incredibly busy trying to provide for us.
