This is absolutlely ridiculous. I have a father who drinks his sorrows away. Sorry, daddy, that we make you so angry and unhappy that you have to turn to liquor. Sorry, also, that you think it's us that enables you to drink. Newsflash: youre the one putting the liquid in your system. Youre the one making the choices. So grow up and start make decisions and stop making excuses, you pathetic waste. I have a mother who won't remain mad at her asshole husband out of fear that he'll go and drink some more. She refuses to believe he has a problem or, daresay, speak of it to anyone besides the me or my sister for fear the the neighborhood will find out and we'll be the "talk of the town." Newsflash to you, mommy, no one gives a shit about our family. And if they did, then it's sad that they need a family's tragedy to spice up their daily conversation. And my classmates? Oh yes, I'm just dying for their acceptance. Give me a break. Be a mom and stand up for your children. I have a sister who also lives in denial that we have an asshole father. She turns to God and her Bible and her friends that she bad mouths on a daily basis. She can't stop being holy for 5 seconds to be a big sister and comfort her terribly angry and hurting baby sister. Just go to college. It's not like you dont already pretend you dont exist in this family anyways. My only joy... I have an amazing boyfriend. I know we have our occasional fights (that i post, but i swear i dont stay angry for long) He wants nothing more than to see me smile. He sticks to his promises and protects me. He hates to see me hurting. He hates that I live in such a fucked up environment and wants to save me. He truly is my knight in shining armor. I would be terribly lost without him. Perhaps you put it best, dear boy, when you said "we are the only ones." |
