I didn’t read it, but surely a person’s family gives you their context.
I’m sure we are all familiar with what Chazal say about Rov Banim. If you made an obvious change from the way of your family then that is noted as well.
Balei Teshuva and Geirim do have a shortcoming, that they didn’t grow up observing a Jewish home and its Chinuch. It’s hard to be Mechanech out of a book. They should therefore keep in touch with someone in Chinuch and Kiruv.
