Everyone likes to complain about (or occasionally praise) their parents. What types were your parents and what did they do right or wrong as a result? (Don't forget to include your type!)
For example, my mother is a 2w1 and I am a 5w4. She never has understood me. She tries to empathize with me and that is the worst way to relate to me. She pressured me a great deal when I was younger to be more social and continues to be concerned about my quiet lifestyle and the fact I do not have a serious significant other. She has always been invasive which conflicts with the five style of valuing privacy. She has always been needy which conflicts with my style of restricting personal needs. She used to tell me that I was negative when I felt I was realistic.
