...I... I never had a family. I... never had any parents, so I didn't know what to do... I thought Dark would help me, and I thought that what we were doing was right... then Serenity started talking about how a family should be, and I realized... I didn't raise my three kids right... I didn't teach them any difference between right and wrong... we didn't do anything to help each other... and now it's too late.....

It's never too late. No one truly knows how to "raise" a family. It's all about learning. And in order to learn, you have to mess up. Wether big or small. So that means you have to meet up with your children and fix things. I mean, look at Serenity. If you saw her when she was five. She was a devious, no good, disrespectful, spoiled child. She continued that way until her mom asked Erza to help. Then Erza sent her my way to teach her life lessons. To show her who I am. And another thing. Even if they are [i]your[/i] kids. That doesn't mean you can't have help. Cause help was what was needed to change Serenity for the good. Yeah, Serenity has been through some serious crap. But her family was there to get her though it. And if you ask, we will be there to help. Well, I know I am.
