What else could I've become?

Robin and Gina were married for several years and they had twin sons. It seems that they had a happy and complete family. There was no place of poverty and shorten of money. But there were shorten for love and respect.

Robin treated his wife like a maid and always yelled at her. He always blamed her for everything. He used to say that she was totally clueless and could not do anything right. She forbade him to yell at her and to learn to talk like a normal person. She also forbade him to start fights in front of their children. But he never stopped and yelled a louder voice that the children should see how foolish their mother was.

The brothers were growing up surrounded by yelling and constant fights. Like every day one day, they were studying and their mom was there. After a while, their dad came and tried to insist her to report him of her every move. But she was unwilling to do so. For this, he got angry and again started to yell. He told her that she was a woman and she had to obey her husband. She again said that she could not report her every move to him. And he insisted that she had to. And he had no care for the children that they should have a good environment to study.

One day Robin was reading the newspaper on the table and Gian was cooking. it was afternoon and the boys wanted to go out. So, they went to her and asked if they could go outside. And she permitted them easily. But Robin could not tolerate her being the decision-maker. He raised his voice and told the boys that it was up to him to decide what they could and could not do.

The older they got, the mere different they became. One was always hangout and having funs or sometimes having fights with other people. And another one most often sat at home for his leisure and read a novel or other books. And so, their attitude towards life began to be different. And as they grew up, their own attitudes were being acute inside them.

They grew up and started their own families. They married two beautiful women in the city and moved on their own away from their parents. One of them loved his wife and never said or did anything to hurt her. If he had ever seen his wife looking tired or sick, he stopped her to do work and he himself did those tasks. The other one was extraordinarily harsh and mean to his wife. If his wife was sick, he didn't care. He never helped her, moreover, he yelled at her to finished the untouched tasks. And although they were brothers, they could not be more different.

One day the new two families got an invitation to their parents' house. The whole family sat together for dinner. Their mother said that she was so glad all of them were there. And soon she and Robin observed the most beautiful and most awful things.

The son who loved his wife took the bowl of salad and gave it to his wife. She happily took it and they looked so happy. The wife of the other son was looking at them. That time her husband yelled at her to pass the bowl of salad to him. He also asked where she was looking at.

Their parents got so shocked. Their father got even more tensed. So, after the dinner, he called on the two sons to have a private meeting. There he asked one of his sons why he treated his wife like that. He replied that he had grown up in that family and he had seen how their dad treated their mom. He said to their father, "What else could I've become?"

The old father turned towards the other son and asked him why he was so nice to his wife. He replied that he had grown up in that family and he had seen how their dad had treated their mom. He said to their father, "What else could I've become?"

At night, when everyone was sleeping, the old father still awoke. He took to heart the words his sons said that evening "What else could I've become?"

Your upbringing and the environment you grew up in don't determine what kind of person you are. You're the one who decides who to be...
