They are not fond of my likings. They are not fond of my sister's preferences either. They can not fathom the fact of losing either of us but they will if they keep up this act. My mom and stepdad are very criticizing. They want perfect children, but in their mind a perfect child is one who likes the same race and opposite sex. I think it's ironic that the children they got is the opposite of "perfect".
My dad treats me and my sister like we are the best thing that has ever happened to him. He sees us as perfect, but in a different way than my mom. He knows who we like and what we prefer, and he supports us in every way that he can. He loves us. My mom, on the other hand, treats us like we are the devil's ex wife. There is no love.
