[quote=Anonymous]A- Would say i had a very happy childhood. Mom yelled a fair amount; we were spanked occassionally when young but neither of these to the point that it seemed wildly unusual. Dad sometimes worked a lot as he was on call in IT for a few years earlier in his career, but mostly they were kind of middle of the road employees while we were living at home still. Did family vacations that created great memories; had lots of traditions of celebrating holidays together with our larger family. Helped us with homework if we needed it but left us to do our own thing otherwise. Volunteered a little bit in extracurricular support roles but not much (it was nowhere near as common back then at least where I grew up aside from like the coach of a team). I don't think they were extremely abnormally great - just good in a pretty normal way. I do think way too many posters here seem to hold onto non-abusive failings by their parents for too long a time. [/quote]
