If there was one thing you wish your parents had supported of you, what was it? For me, I wish...

My mum raised us, 11 of of us, after my dad ran off with a younger woman. She's my hero, couldn't fault her.

Too numerous to mention them all actually. They were too busy supporting their "golden child"...my adopted brother (and still are/do).They don't even as much as give me a call to wish me a happy birthday (because they 'forgot'), but they never forget to travel 50 miles to take him out to dinner for his. Does this give you some idea?

I wish my parents had supported some of my previous relationships

I feel so deprived. The only times my parents didn't support me were times when it turned out they were right all along. God, I hate having great parents! I can't blame them for anything that goes wrong in my life!

Allowed me to be a fighter jets pilot in the Air Force.

My parents wanted me to play the piano and so I did. But at 14 a friend loaned me a guitar and I never looked back. Practice, practice, practice 3/4 hours a day for 25 years one can get pretty good at it. Yes, I still play the keyboard but guitar is my favorite.

Sports. Definitely sports. And school. My parents didn't really care about anything except God. Turns out, God doesn't dish out many physical or intellectual outlets or money or education. They supported me meh'ly, but they never acted like anything really mattered.

I was elite. At 14, I was benching 175, and deadlifting 350, weighing 136. I could have gone far. But the parents fucked too many things up.
