Unlike yours, my family actually gave me the freedom to define myself. It would be a mistake to measure my worth or my anything by my family.

Unlike yours, my regard is earned, not given freely.

Those on the other hand, do not really put much value on their own family. They look for something else, another family. They even sometimes run away from their homes, or are just left to fend off for themselves.
And family members who really want each other's regard or value do not expect it free of cost.

And that's what makes you worthless - a man who cannot define his own worth and depends on his family to do so.
