They are your gardians,they are your motivators, they are your protectors, they are your teachers

They are supposed to guide you through your young life, to help you achieve your goals

They are supposed to give you hope and encourage you to reach your dreams, to help you go far

They are supposed to watch out for you when you are weak and innocent, to help keep pain from touching you

They are supposed to educated you on the world, to help make you aware and ready for whatever hell comes your way

They are supposed to be your parents...

But what if they fail at all of these tasks?

Are they still your guardians if they leave you to fall on your face, if they leave you all alone to find your way through the dark?

Are they still your motivators if all their words leave you in tears, if they are part of the group of forked tongued beasts spitting venom at your heart?

Are they still your protectors if they cause blood to spill from your lips, if they allow someone to take you against your will?

Are they still your teachers if they throw you into the world without so much as a good luck, if they hold you down to let the world rip at your flesh so that the unpredictable pain is your mentor?

No. You cannot expect to carry such titles if you do not fit the job description.
