Yes I learned what I didn't want to be like from my parents....only problem was I didn't have any model of what a really gpod parent was like to learn from. So I struck out on my own makong it up as I went fighting hard NOT to be like my parents & in the process I made some bad choices myself. I am only 5+ years younger than your parents (65) so am more away what the environment was like. It is just nit easy being a oarent no matter what
