I was born in Florida, but when she got a divorce she dropped me off at my Grandparents.
Later she had two kids with my alcoholic Step Dad and wanted me to come live with them to care for the children. They were both in diapers.
She went back to work. 2nd shift. So I had to care for the children, feed them before their dad came home. Put them to bed. Get dinner ready for him and clean up. He went to night school.
I hated him and never saw my mom. Couldn't have friends over cuz I had the kids.
Miserable life.
