Every care and guidance our parents give us has an impact not only on our personality but also on our relationships with others since our brain develops depending upon the guidance and discipline of our parents.
Since I grew up in a large family which I had a lot of cousins from both sides which has various genders besides men and women like those in LGBTQ's and since my parents are friendly in nature as I grew up I have this thought that it is fine to befriend with my opposite gender as well as to those in LGBTQ communities. I grew up with the first thing we were taught, to be self-sufficient and independent which gives me a greater opportunity to make decisions based on knowledge I also realized that when it comes to socializing with other people in other places it is not new for me to befriend with them and adapt their cultures. Relating to the relationship opposite gender they won't dictate me but they only provide reminders for better decision-making on how to deal with them better. They won't force me to believe what they believed instead they nurture me to learn from my own mistakes and to be competent enough to solve a problem on my own which is sufficient to develop our own sets of knowledge from our experiences.
I'm a Catholic and that is the reason I guess why I don't support such an idea of abortion and same-sex marriage but it doesn't mean that I lose my respect for them. I had friends which happened to be part of the LGBTQ community they all pretty much had partners, I mean they are in a relationship and I support them as long as it doesn't harm me I don't see any reason to be against it. Yes I do have these beliefs of my but my friends are more important than that, all that matters was how we socialize with each other and respect each other thoughts. Aside from our parents while I was growing up my older brother used to educate me about various things or sometimes I just overheard their conversation from different subjects of life. Most of them influence my own personal beliefs as I experience what they used to encounter while growing up, there's this one piece of advice that they used to say to me even when I was a child and it is to choose to shut my mouth whenever I don't have a good thing to say. As I grow older I just realized how important this phase is, it helps me somehow not to speak up much of my thought if I were against someone's belief. I presume it is pretty important since for the sake of your friend or for someone that you couldn't agree with their belief staying quiet is more like respecting each other's thoughts than counterarguing it.
What older people believe has a huge impact on a child's personal beliefs and characteristics and as an aunt, I'm hoping that I could pass down these things that I have learned through the years. As an adult at the right age, let us not ruin one's beliefs by dictating them lets leave them to experience such things that would change what they used to believe, let's just support and respect each other's beliefs.
