[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Abused, neglected, ignored, bullied, I have seen it all. I have told my husband, but not all.  I have told my daughters, but not all.  Never told any friends. My friends would absolutely not believe I could have a background like the one I came from.  I have risen above the dysfunctional my  dysfunctional family of my childhood.  I still feel sad inside for all I could have become if only someone took care of me.  
I worked very hard to raise my daughters to be loved,respected, and educated.  They are my golden prize for all of my suffering as a child.[/quote]

This is me as well.  I am successful but wonder how much more successful I could’ve been.  Maybe I would not have had the same drive or been as resourceful with an easy life. Who knows. I often wonder what it feels like to have a mother. To be hugged by your mother.   I have spent so many holidays and birthdays alone since I left home at 16, it’s nice to finally have a family.  I get asked about my family a lot and lie.  If I tell a part of the truth there are always more questions.  It was more difficult when I was single and had to lie about being alone during the holidays.  [/quote]
