Drug Dealer Culture in Affirmations

Like many of you, I've read many books and seen many movies and TV shows where at least one of the characters is a drug dealer, knows a drug dealer, is related to a drug dealer and/or has parents who are drug dealers. In Affirmations, I chose to use a model not often employed: parents who are drug dealers who have a daughter who wants out of that way of life. Usually, the child acts very strangely and is considered odd by the drug-dealing parents. In Affirmations, Nefertari is the daughter of drug dealers. Do you think she's "odd"? Would you consider her "rebellious"? If so, why? She isn't exactly joining a heavy metal or hip hop band. She is just very interested in getting an education and pursuing a career as an investigative journalist (and is dating a man outside of her culture). Is the Gundangamo family portrayed realistically, in your opinion? Would you say that some drug-dealing parents are more likely to accept a gay son over a daughter dating someone to escape from a world of endless violence, chaos, and corruption? Also, the Gundangamos aren't your typical "struggling drug dealer family." Nobody in the family has addiction problems, they sell the highest-quality meth for the lowest prices. Nefertari and her brother never had to worry about not having food on the table or not being able to buy strip clubs and car washes as legitimate fronts for their illegal activities. In fact, Nefertari spent her college years running a high-class brothel to pay for college. What do you think about that? I would love to hear from the public what they think about my view of drug dealer culture as seen in the novel.
