Relating to my previous qn (How does your oc feel about their parents?)
Does your oc think they would raise their kids differently than from how they were raised?
Niko and Wade probably would be similar to their own parents, with Niko being more open from the start to their own decisions/changes in their lives.
Rayze is the big one; if Rayze had kids he'd AGONIZE over it because like hell he'd become anything like his mother or father, for different reasons. He'd try to be there for them like his parents weren't; issue is that Rayze doesn't have a good grasp of what that means. So he'd fumble/trip and fall a lot on raising kids because he frankly has no basis of affection/sympathy that someone raised normally would. He could treat them like his Pokemon treated him, he guesses, but that isn't the same as raising a kid.

what's the worst gift your oc ever received
Niko: I think... a carpenter's hammer from his dad when he turned 13. His parents were pushing him to become a carpenter and at that point he was drifting away from following that path, and that hammer was the first time he sort of knew that he didn't want to be a carpenter.
Rayze: The scars on his body, the wheezing lung in his chest, and the beer bottle to the face-
Wade: He got a really scary Pokemon Doll when he was like eight. It terrified him for months.

How does your oc feel about their parents?
Niko loves his parents; while they were harsh, they were good people. They even gave him Bon as his first Pokemon and trusted in Niko to try and make his dream of becoming a skilled trainer a reality instead of following them and becoming a carpenter. He misses his parents too; the trip from Johto to Arcadia/Taygia means he can't see any of his family, close or extended, and it does weigh on him a good deal.
Rayze hates his parents with absolute vitriol; he's glad his mom is dead and hope's his dad is, too. :) Doesn't ever want to picture their faces again.
Wade likes his parents and calls them frequently when he isn't out in the field! He often sends them snacks/treats/souvenirs from Arcadia over to Hoenn so that they can enjoy a taste of his new home too!
