the situation with your childhood is hitting way too close here.. first of all, i am so glad for you, and your kids. especially that you were strong enough to be able to love your children, even after you went through so much running as a child in search of the love you deserved by your birth right and were denied.. you really are a strong person, and it's amazing that you managed to do what you did.. by sharing it you share a certain degree of inspiration..

the responses to this post are really moving, and you all offer such great support for everyone here, it is amazing.. this whole community is amazing..


your situation as a child struck so close in regards to my niece's current situation.. her father and mother both left her upon the door steps of trashy houses and broken homes.. substance abused in her face.. and i was really not a good influence on her at this point either, i admit and regret the horrible influence i was then.. she was argued about in her face and did things which are just deemed irreconsileable from my view.. things that when she was only 0-2 i'm sure could really have made a negative infleucne on her.. i know this is an old post.. and i don't mean to turn it into something selfish.. but the description of what you went through matches her so well, and i am currently at a loss as to how i may help her.. i know she needs it.. i know this 'family' is not a place she needs to be brought up in if she is ever to feel worthy of existing as she deserves.. and i almost feel as though she needs a way out.. very quickly and very soon.. there is a sense of urgency within this which i can't even put into words.. i want her to have the voice so many are denied.. and show her that life isn't all about putting people down like her grandparents may lead her to believe.. or others around her may lead her to believe.. she is only a child.. and she is being used as a tool of revenge by so many..

my heart goes out to you once again.. you are a very brave and remarkable person.. thank you for sharing your story
