Children of good parents, what did your parents do right? How were they good parents?

Hi 'the opposite, Always expecting the worse, much like my father. Grew up in a kill or be killed city and was almost pressed to a war he didn't want to fight in, my father was very smart and logical. as someone who never even knew his father, he wanted me and my brother to have the best life he could give us. He was always there to give us great advice on where to go to next in life and how to enjoy it to the fullest. As a proud engineer and a happy guitarist, I can not describe how happy he was when I first told him that I wanted to build a house and when I told him I wanted to play Rocky Mountain High. He taught me mathematics, history, engineering, Music... Everything I'm into now really.

Quite the weird combination indeed. I am very glad I had such great parents.', im DAD.
