[quote=Anonymous]A My parents were relatively strict, but joyful and supportive. They created a happy, stable home, met all our needs (a feat with 5 kids), and raised us all to be kind, contributing members of society who are still close. They managed a good combination of not making us the center of the universe (maintaining lives beyond the kids and not being over-involved/controlling) while still creating a sense that we were profoundly loved and could always count on them to be there when we needed it. Most of the ‘bad’ stuff was minor and products of their upbringing. A bit too much Catholic guilt, some spankings with a wooden spoon when they were young and overwhelmed with toddlers, squashing some personal expression in ways that I think weren’t helpful (my mom was very strict about fashion and boys), but all in all, I can’t complain.[/quote]
