What is Gulliver's perspective towards his family?

Gulliver's perspective toward his family is shaped largely by his experiences and disillusionment with human nature, which he reflects upon throughout his travels. He feels a sense of shame regarding humanity's flaws, particularly after encountering various societies that highlight the corruption, pettiness, and moral failings of people. This profound critique of human existence leads him to question not just societal norms but also his own relationships, including those with his family.

In "Gulliver's Travels," his encounters with the Lilliputians, Houyhnhnms, and other beings lead to a disillusionment that compounds over time. By the end of his journeys, he finds himself increasingly alienated from both mankind and his familial ties. His shame stems from a belief that he is unable to fully connect with them due to the corruption he sees in the world at large, thus influencing his view of interpersonal relationships, including those with his family members.
