well,this discussion is about your family members. what makes you proud of your family members? i have 8 members in my family. and i am really proud of them... i am proud of my dad as he has been through a few bad company when he was young and has managed to make something good out of himself. it does not mean we are rich or anything, but he is a loving hasband and a doting father. he opens his heart to the kids who come to our family to stay for a while or a long period of time. i am proud of my mom as even though her health is not so good nowadays, she still looks after foster kids and treats them as her own. she is caring, and loving, and thinks family is everything. and i am proud to have her as a mom. i am proud of my older sister, for she is really great with the kids and keeps her cool. she is understanding and even though she is 19 this year, she is very close to all of us. i think she will be a great mom next time as she does not ever be mean to the kids. i am proud of my younger sister, as even though she is going through her teenage years and have the idenity issues at times, she helps look after the kids and treat them as her real brothers. i am proud of my 12 year old foster brother, as he has been through a lot and have to undergo a huge change in his lifestyle just this year. he is coping well and has been named the best student of the class even when he lost his only famly member. i am proud of my 4 year old foster brother as even being that young, he is still able to look after the younger boy. he treats him nicely and has a really good sense of responsibility. he is also very careful and sweet when we go out he will tell us to take care and can offer reasonable answers to the questions we ask. i am proud of my 3 year old foster brother as he will have to visit his real mom ever week and even then he is coping well. he is really clever and is able to run really fast. he eats alot and is very daring.. i love all of them and will not change anyone of them for the world. hooe they will stay with us forever.

You have a lot to be proud of and that's great. I'm proud of my family because of our open minds. We don't judge others solely based on whatever. We see things differently than most people and that's something we cherish. I'm proud to say I was born into a family who cares about the little things in life.

gee you sure have a lot to be proud of you are very lucky, I haven't got much family left but I do have one sister and I guess I am proud of her because she has managed to bring up her family in a way that many don't anymore, she has stayed home and brought up her children herself, never went to work and her children are like friends to her she is now baby sitting her grandchildren a lot these days and caring for her husband who is not really well these days...I am proud of her and the life she has made for her self...
