Overall, would you say you grew up in a loving household?
No family is perfect, of course. But by the time you reached adulthood, could you look back on your upbringing fondly? Do you feel that basically you had grown up in a loving home?

Sorta yes and sorta no. There was quite a bit of dysfunction and emotional bullying in my home. My mother was always ridiculing me in the day and left our home when I was 13. My dad raised us, but was often overwhelmed and absent. I had a grandmother that lived two doors down that seem to love me unconditionally, so there was some balance. Sadly, she died when I was 16.
I am still healing from what I went through.
