Like my thing wsith Emette, a lot of my OCs personalities would be altered based on a change in their family situation of perception on their family situation.

I think Demetri would be a different person if his family situation was a different. Because the abuse from his family took serious blows to his confidence, if it was any different, I could say that Demetri could have lived a much happier life. He would be more confident in himself, but whether or not he'd be an artist is a iffy. He took up art as a coping machanism, so if he didn't have any trama that he needed to distract himself from, he may not have even tried art.

As for Zoey, if she was a little less rebelious and confident in herself, she's probably be pretty depressed. She wouldn't be confident enough to stand up to her parents and as a result, would feel suffocated and like she didn't have any freedom. With out that confidence, she may not be able to accept how disconnected her familly really is and feel lonely in the process.

If Jacob's mom had been around for a longer portion of Jacobs life, not only would she try to raise Jacob to be a better person than he is now, but their relationship would make Jacob feel more loved in his home life, thus causeing hims to not crave as much attention from his peers.
