My parents weren't bad, just not what I wanted in my family. My older sister is though and he had great role models in my opinion
Definitely
I think we both had good and bad role models
I don't think either of our primary role models were the best examples BUT, there are parts of my parents relationship that was beautiful and amazingly loving and I was surrounded by great role models via my maternal grandparents, aunt/uncle and cousins.
She had a rough start to life but ending with 2 of the most amazing loving people I have ever met!!
I did not come from good relational parents. But 2 very loving caring parents. But I'm learning what I missed everyday from the one I love!

She did, but I don't think I did. I am not sure if I have ever been around good relational role models, but we are working on being some good relational role models for my daughters.
Yes she has awesome parents
Our parents were all married for 40+ years so I'd say yes. It wasn't always rainbows & sunshine but I think they took their vows seriously and worked through problems rather than quit.
No
His parents are still together so I would say yes for him but no for me.

No. I didn't. I still don't. My parents argue in front of me and my siblings even if it's a small argument still. And they never show affection. My mom stays ill at my Dad and really never cares to have him around. So I didn't but I've always known how to love and what love is and so I hope that to him we are never anything like his parents are. But I think he has good role models when it comes to his parents so yeah.
I think if you figure it all in we were both blessed
