How do you assess the influence that your family has had on you?

Answer 1

My father taught me that we must satisfy our basic needs before we worry about more altruistic pursuits.

My mother taught me that love begets responsibilities.

My grandmother taught me that unconditional love does exist.

Answer 2

you have to explore yourself.

find out what is special about you, about your character.
are you very caring? do you like to go out? are you religious?

anything you do, the way you think, what you love or fear.
everything about your personality has a root, a reason. sometimes these reasons are intertwined or have evolved over a long period of time, and sometimes there are noticeable parallels, most of which are reflected upon by C.G. Jung and S. Freud.
but even without those professionals, pondering your own thoughts, habits and beliefs will make it very easy to make out the influence of your family.
and it helps a lot to do the same thing with friends for practice...
