In this world we live in. We cannot change a few things like where we are born, who we are realted too and who are parents are. Well here the thing, if you could alter(change a few qualities but retain most of the original), trade(get a set of parents that you have seen before or want and make it your own), or would you get anew(whole new set of parents) if you really could?
Personally i want a normal teen life and i can get that here, so i would alter mine. To be more open minded, and supportive and stop playing favortites with giving my brother all the fiancial support(They gave him nearly over 5000$ in his new school because he couldnt work in the last one, yet they spend 400$ on me and it suddenly an issue of that i dont get anyting for chirstmas, not fair in my eyes). Because what i am(bisexual, leaning to gay) could pose a problem when i tell them and i want to be an actor(which they dont support in the least, believe me they told they dont). But i like living here, because my friends are my life and i dont want some actor parents or famous people. It take the glory away from me, i dont share spotlight(Vain yes, me more yes), i want to achieve my one and only goal solo and have a story behind it not just "my parents set me up". Im wondering how VTF feels about their parents and what they would do if they could.

No, I would definitely not change my parents. I love them and respect them. They treat me fairly with love and care. They support me in what I do and who I am. Without them, I wouldn't be where I am today (in a nice cozy home, typing on my own computer).

I would alter them slightly.
It would make coming back from uni a much nicer experience.

Sometimes, yes I would like a different set of parents. When they embarrass me. Such as my dad walking through WalMart singing at what seemed to be the top of his lungs. Right then, yes I wanted a different father.

But all in all, no. I love my parents. I know I can go to them when I need help, and they will do what they can to help me through something. I don't always understand why they do some things, but I will when I get older.

i would like to thing that i'd change the fact that my dad was an abusive alcoholic (still drinks) and the fact that my mother was largely unconcerned with her children's wellbeing and welfare until recently.
however, if i actually had the opportunity, i'm not sure that i'd change a thing. i feel more pain for knowing that my brothers and sisters also went through bad things than i feel remorse for my own losses. i'd be at a loss as whether i'd want to change things or not. if i hadn't had the trainwreck life that i grew up with, i might not be as broad minded and equipped to deal with the harsh realities of life as i am now.

They would be apathetic, pamper me, and have a shit load of cash.
