Family Matters
de_la_Nae:
As the older sibling I'd say yeah that's a fair cop. I like to describe my brother as my best friend,biggest rival, and bitterest enemy for most of our years growing up together. With space he's just my best friend, thankfully.
For full disclosure's sake I should point out we were raised by a somewhat emotionally-stunted family who were into isolation, so that affects things a bit.
jesslc:
Well, Claire's parents divorced because her dad was cheating on her mum, and she's still bitter about it, so not so good there. Clinton is supportive of her transitioning though and possibly her parents are too (the fact that the worst she's said regarding her parents was about the cheating makes me think that they are).
I'm going to go with Angus or Tai, but that's kind of cheating - we don't really know anything about either of their parents. (Except that Angus's were rich. I don't think you can assume anything based on that - rich people are equally likely to be good or bad parents. I don't remember anything about Tai's parents). Both Angus and Tai seem to be fairly together (psychologically speaking) and when it came to it they both seem to be pretty mature as far as relationships go. That could indicate that they had a good example growing up.
Or it could be complete crap, but I couldn't really pick any of the characters that we do know about their upbringing. I don't think any of them had a particularly good upbringing (Faye did prior to her father blowing his head off, but... major trauma caused by her father... yeah).

My spontaneous reaction would be that they probably don't know due to lack of contact (Claire probably didn't mention anything about them being non-supportive because so far the only ones who know seem to be Marten and Clinton). But that's just wild mass-guessing on my part.
It goes without saying that if this ever gets confirmed as canon, I will claim having deduced it with nothing but logic and my bare hands.
Kixie:
Yea.. I'm voting Marten up here. He's friendly with both his parents, and they're friendly with each other even after the divorce. Even though their methods may have been a bit.. odd, he's a fairly normal and level guy.. and he definitely doesn't seem to have too much bias when it comes to meeting people. Even through the "rough" divorce and admissions on both sides, both seem to still love him and truly care, and he doesn't appear to have any horror stories abound from either side.
Is it cold in here?:
Tai has taken a grown-up track on pursuing Dora, but prior to that things were pretty tangled. Hard drugs at work is a symptom of something or other.
Marigold acts much like someone who didn't have a female role model growing up.
Raven seems to have fewer hangups than any of the women in the strip.
