What things about your childhood have shaped you as an adult?


Question:
This could be your parents' parenting style, your friends, a traumatic experience, a good experience, etc... How has all of this shaped your personality and who you are as an adult?

Answers:
Great question. My life was shaped by my mom and not in a positive way. My whole life she always moved us around from place to place. She was never around and was very angry all the time. When I first got on my own, I constantly moved around with out even realizing I was doing what she had done. I was very bitter at a lot of things. I tend to back out of relationships because I'm not available. This is sad how it affected everything I did. I also had a huge problem with being alone because she was always gone. thank god I recognized I didn't want to be like her and have had lots of counseling. I'm now happy, settled in one spot, and in college and also can hold a relationship. People can break cycles if they want it bad enough.
My parents splitting up, my Dad raising us, me being the oldest having to assume the parent role with house keeping, cooking and taking care of my little brother and sisters. I was only 11 at the time. Responsibility came fast.
