My family isnt bad. My parents are like the Camdens from 7th Heaven in the sense that they will take in my poor deprived friends and guide them. My friend Julian is a prime example. Hes in the military, he has no family nearby and he doesnt have good relationships with his mom or dad. Well when we first met I felt SO bad that he was eating ucky chow hall food (no wonder our military is fat, the food they are fed is worse than that in some school disticts) that I MADE him come eat a decent meal with my family, and my mom found out about his parents somehow... I think he told her and now he eats there damn near every night! Hes also a real good kid and after about the 3rd time I made him come eat he just started doing the dishes as I was clearing the table. My mom tried to stop him and seriously he told her "NO" and my moms pretty scary when she puts her foot down. (I live in fear of pissing off my mom and it takes a lot, but Ive seen it happen) Now she just thinks its great that she doesnt have to do them. My mother being the little Christian that she is(THANKFULLY shes OPEN MINDED and I get no shit from her other than some nagging about my piercings and tattoos and political beliefs) invited him to church the last time I was home.. now he goes every week with them(what a good little boy. why cant I have him as my bf? damn you school!!) My siblings are alright, we all get along and love one another. We're pretty close too. Even though we live so far away from one another we keep in good contact. My older brother is getting married in a couple weeks
yay!
My outer family is pretty cool, well my Uncle on my Moms side is a little weird, and his wife and step daughter are a bit pretentious and bitchy.. but we accept them. I love my Uncle and I accept his family. My Dads family is alright.. a few of my cousins are misguided and have made horrible choices and have hurt many of us in the family, but theyre not evil. Theyve just made poor life choices and we cant do anything but support them in making steps in the right direction. All around my family isnt too bad. A little weird, and they put the FUN in dysfunctional, but I love them all. Most of them I would befriend in real life too.
