[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s your family background? Parents? Siblings? [/quote]

My parents divorced when I was three due to my fathers cheating and as an only child, I grew up in New York City. My mother was a second-generation Italian-American. My mom remarried a man with issues involving alcohol and gambling addictions, and, he became abusive towards her. The situation eventually escalated, and when I was seven, in an act of self-defense, my mother did something that led to her arrest and imprisonment. As a result, I could no longer stay there. Her husband blamed me for the incident and harassed me even though I was 7/8, so I moved in with my father.
My father had several girlfriends over the years. While some were kind and looked after me, the last one he married was not. She was cold and unwelcoming, excluded me, and when I was eleven, she made it clear she didn’t want me living there. I then moved in with my mom’s cousin and his wife, who kindly let ne live. with him. I stayed with them for several years, but during this time, I was caught drinking in eighth grade, I wasn’t like an out of control drunk, just calm but she didn’t like it. My mom’s cousin’s wife did not tolerate this behavior, so she kicked me out.
I then moved in with my best friend’s family, who were kind enough to take me in for a couple of years. However, as my friendship with their daughter deteriorated, they didn’t want me living there anymore because we were no longer friends. Afterward, I began staying with friends who had their own places. [/quote]
