muy cariñosa,,muy protectora y me enseñó muchos valores humanos


No. Not much.


no


Neither.


Sometimes (and i mean rarely) emotionally, and never ever physically.


My mom tried to be very affectionate emotionally and physically but I hate being touched and affectionate with anyone.


Si bien no fueron ni son tan afectivos, de ves en cuando hay muestras de esto, por parte de mi padre mas que nada, no llevo buena relación con mi madre.



Not really, they were always very distant and not very emotionally in touch. Things have gotten better recently though, maybe it's because I have matured.
Glad it's gotten better. You guys seem really great together now 😊 love spending time with all of you!

Very though my Dad was not very emotionally affectionate until recently. He grew up without a Dad so he kind of had to learn how to father without an example.
Very much so, with my mom just being a little too sheltering on occasion. It's the kind of family I want to have some day :p

Nope..but I now they care and love me without having to show it


si


My family is very emotionally affectionate. We love each other and care for each other. However, my parents don't like hugs so I was mostly raised without. They prefer kisses over hugs, which made me feel weird when people hugged me at first, because I wasn't used to it.


I'd say very much so, with each other, each other's friends, and strangers. I couldn't have asked for a better set!
They are; it's sweet. ☺️ Mine never were. We never hugged or said I love yous until my brother died. My dad still can't say I love you. It's funny to me now though. 😆

Very huggy and very much said I love you often
I think they were physically affectionate. But I was not a kid that liked to be touched. Emotionally ... I know daddy Darrell was and when Milt was around, I think he was too.

SI, mi madres jugaba mucho con nosoros, sufri mucho cuando vino a USA y yo quede con mi hermana pequena en mi pais. No cresi con mi papa y mi padrasto fue un excelente padre, pero nunca tube mucho afecto.
