Improvising vs. Learning songs

Two months ago I discovered "Improvising".
When I first tried to improvise something with minor pentatonic scale, it sounded dull and stupid. As the time was passing, I was getting better and better......

Here's my problem:
I like improvising so much that everything I play is improvised, I improvise all the time! I stopped focusing on learning songs.

Is this wrong?!
My father complains me that I don't learn songs..... but I like the improvising better. My mother really likes my songs (I mean what I improvise while I'm playing in the living room)...

Should I focus on making my own songs, or on learning songs?

Thanks for help!


I'm sorry for spelling or grammar mistakes I did because I'm from Croatia and I'm still having hard time writing English.
