Family History

I just wanted to discuss the idea of family culture. As I looked back on my own family, I realized that things that happened in the past definitely did have an impact on my family. The way that my father was raised made him not want to become the type of father that he had. His father, had joined the army to escape his father, whom he also did not want to become like. Now, my little brother seems to have this hatred for our father. It is interesting to see that relationship and to also realize that it isn't as uncommon as I had thought. Family histories will always have an impact on the individual, even if they don't know about it. It is our culture, our history. Who knew that we actually did have it? I'll keep that in mind from now on.
