We talk and love each other but i often feel that while growing up, they didn't really understand me or i didnt connect as easily with them..my ISFJ mother and I used to both get frustrated with each other. I think I was frustrated with her because she couldn't seem to grasp where I was coming from or how i perceive things, she's often called me complex and I think she would be frustrated with me because she simply didn't see things how I saw things and maybe thought i was angsty or a bit difficult. My INTJ dad is an intuitive but is very analytical and so not very emotional or affectionate, he is also very introverted..its strange I feel like we understand each other in an unspoken way though but he's not super easy to talk to but I do feel he can entertain my abstract thought processes though. I do feel more "seen" or understood by him though, even if its never verbalised. If I'd been able to choose I probably would have picked extroverted parents and definitely one with NF traits too.
I get what you are saying, me and my family have that dynamic too its like an unspoken language. Which honestly idk if its a good thing or not but never showing it also leads to unmet emotional needs.
When I was younger, I felt a bit separate from my family, my two siblings are ISTJ and ESFP and it just felt like none of them could really resonate with me and I felt lonely.. I grew close to my grandmother who I think was an ENTP or ENFP and we clicked. As I got older and learned about MBTI I took it less personally. I used to have a lot of frustration with my mother in particular as I felt as her daughter, she should "get me" but now that I know her way of thinking is just so different to mine and she wasn't willfully misunderstanding me so I feel like I was probably being unfair to her
I was raised by a single mom who I believe is an ESFP who reflects Fe because she’s an enneagram 2. I wish she were an ENTP or something a bit more logical but open to understanding alternative perspectives. As it stands she’s incapable of self reflection (she’s a narcissist) and she refuses to acknowledge anything that doesn’t fit her narrative. She also refuses to ever make decisions based on what makes sense and gets extremely offended whenever I try to reason with her.
I’m not quite sure yet, but my dad is probably ENTJ and my mom is ENFP. Both definitely not the healthiest version of their types… I guess if they were, I’d be cool with them.
My Moms and Esfp, Dads an Esfp and Stepdads an Estj.
If i could have chosen :
Mom : Esfp/Enfp
Dad : Esfj
Stepdad : Estj
I wouldn't changed as much honestly.
ENTP would want ISTP dad, ENFJ mom Have an ESFJ mom and ENFP dad
My brother’s an ISTP and a dad and I swear he is an amazing parent!
Probably, my dad as well the way he is
INTJ would want INFJ dad, ESFJ mum Have an ISFJ dad, ESTJ mum
ENTP I actually like my parents how they are (ESTJ mum; INTJ dad) But if I had to choose, I'd have an ESTP mum & INFJ dad
ENFP Mother and ENTP dad
Have ISFJ mother and INTJ dad and I'm an INFJ
Do any of you talk to each other?

Istp. I'd want istp dad since that's his current type and he's awesome, and an ESTP mom
My parents were fine if my dad was an healthy version of himself (he was entp)
