All things together.

I've always lived in a warm family, where everybody treated everyone else respectfully. Everybody was loving and caring. We would have occasional family dinners.
I really miss those days!

I'm currently in cold water.
This family is very cold, everyone has their own personality and attitude. It's so different compared to what I'm used to. Sure I got used to this environment but I long for those warm family days...

The siblings don't really get along well. The two brothers do (they didn't used to until I repaired their relationship!) now but the sister remains in darkness. She acts so different, she is a teenager afterall... But all my life I loved my brother. I get along very well with him and I would tell him my secrets from time to time. I remember I used to sit on his bed while he would be on his computer doing something. I would just sit there and watch, or I'm just doing my thing on his bed. Heh I liked to be around him. He is a very nice brother, and I believed that I was a nice sister too!
But... compared to this family, everybody is just so distant. Even the parents, because they're always at work. They have no time to educate the children, sorry to say but the two little ones are no well raise and educated. I got no guts to tell them that face to face hah, but my husband knows. I told him he was lucky, that his mother put the most time and effort in raising him, and gave up on the ones after him. She's a very busy woman since the father is useless. There is no father figure in this family (so do ours, but at least my mother respects my father, so do I) and everybody ignores the father thanks to the mother. She disrespects him, often says bad things behind his back in front of the children. They have no love... It's a broken family.
The 2 lil ones often would say that their father is stupid and give him faces behind his back and attitude, I just found that so rude!!! I don't remember seeing my brother or myself doing that. I never insulted my father in a bad way... What has this society come to? Is this how newer generations behave nowadays?
No respect?

The children dare to raise their voice against the parents.
I remember my mother, who was very strict, hitting me when I dared to say one word while she was giving me a lecture. No I wasn't even screaming or said anything in a loud voice. My words were quiet and normal, even so I dared to talk back to her (in a nice manner of course).
I would be force to stand and listen to my mother lecturing me for as long as she could talk... half an hour maybe, or more?

I found that nowadays parents and children stand on the same level. The children are aloud to raise their voices, quarrel with them and the parents would either do nothing or talk back. The end.
What happened to reinforcements? As in, I thought parents should at least show that they are on a higher level and they should be looked upon.

Blabber mouth =/
Whatever I say is useless anyways because I can't do anything to this family, and after all I still feel like a stranger to them... The lil bro is nice to me and accepted me as his sister I think heh. That's really cute.
