I would tell mom what dad would say to me and she told me to shut my mouth, and if I would only do everything I was told my dad would leave me alone. I guess mom stuck up for my dad because she was just as mean to me at times as he was. My two older brothers would say hateful things to me about how me clothes looked like garbage and so did my hair! I
grew up thinking I was stupid and ugly and until recently I hated myself and stayed away
from people, never making friends. Today I have two girl friends that accept me just
the way I am and my life is beginning to change for the better. If only I could
forget the past! |
