”I have no idea why a total stranger is your role model (someone you’ve never met). People have their demons and life issues to deal with. But if there are some people who inspire your work, skill or maybe fashion sense I can understand.
If you cannot see your parents as your role model, then there’s something wrong with your family/upbringing. Don’t stress people out concerning the mistakes your parents couldn’t fix.”
