....If we look back onto the US history we can see the basic structure of a family. Two parents happily married, and there three children attending school and living the american dream, coming home to a freshly cooked meal and a steaming slice of apple pie with a scoop of Vanilla icecream.
As much as others may want to think thats how families are now and days...my watchers, i am sorry to say that you are deathly wrong. My life is far from perfect as is most everyone elses, and at this point i don't know where to turn. My mother and father got divorced when i was 10, leaving my to try and keep my two younger siblings together from ripping this ex-"family" apart.
Fast forward about 7 years. My father is an avid drunk getting shit-face wasted every weekend and picking fights with my younger brother without fail. He refuses to pay for anything no matter how small if he sees it unfit, or if he's angry with us. I have an oblivious step mom who only caters to her child and tries to satisify our basic needs while teaching, trying to keep her son in contact with his real biological father who has not shown up (though has promiced to on several occassions) for nearly a year, and keep her husband's rage at bay. My sister is at the end of her rope with our father and at 13 has decited to move in with our mother and hopefully avoid this foul influence we have come to know as a "father". Just today i have found out that my father no longer wishes to support my brother and is kicking him out of his house. He is packing as i type this so he can live with our mother...mark my words watchers, friends, and readers alike, by the pass of two years from now my father will have no one left. I know my step mom can only take so much, my siblings have moved out, and i am colage bound. Anyone who reads this journal i ask that you not pity me in any way. These actions have hurt me deeply and i may never gain the respect for my father that he request, tough in my openion it is far to much. you must give respect if you wish to have it in return. God save my soul if he finds this for i am sure it will be the end of me...thank you, everyone who actually takes the time to read these little bits of my life that i try to let everyone know about...Thank you, everyone.
