Previously Married and Judgemental/Unsupportive Parents

Hi guys, I'm in the mood for a couple of different non-specific J2 stories but I don't think these two things are particularly on any rec lists anywhere or have specific tags but I'm sure you lovely peeps will know of some stories including such things so here goes:

1. Stories where one of the J's was previously married. Maybe it causes them to be extra cautious and afraid of commitment. Maybe the marriage was abusive and very unhappy. Maybe they bump into said ex-hubby and some explaining proceeds afterwards. IDK why this popped into my head but I just think it could lead to some interesting story plots etc wherein a past very serious relationship effects the brand new one they're trying to create. (I've added a few abuse tags. It's not mandatory for this request, but I just thought I'd add some as a warning in case some stories recommended here do include abuse seeing as I have mentioned it.)

2. Stories with unsupportive and judgmental parents. Either Jensen or Jared always being labeled as the disappointment child. Either because they're gay, their career prospects or their life choices in general. You know, the unfortunate, "Did you know your brother got promoted?" "Your sister has just announced her engagement." "You were such a bright boy in school, you could have done so much with that brain of yours." Etc etc. Obviously the other J cheers them up :)

Virtualpersonal's BEST GIFT OF ALL (story and several sequels) for your #1. Names used are Sam and Dean, but might as well be J2; story is very AU, although hunting is neatly interwoven (not a main focus). Plus: great Christmas scenes!

Summary: Sam runs away from an abusive relationship, taking his daughter with him. On the road and trying to get as far as possible on limited funds, his car breaks down. Against his better judgment, Dean, a mostly retired hunter and the town mechanic, offers to let them stay with him until repairs can be made. Hurt/comfort, schmoop, domestic fic, X-mas, HEA.
