I too was once everyone's scapegoat in the family....... and then one day (after years of T) I finally stopped and with the that day came an awaking in me where I told it all out loud for all to hear when my family was together in one house...... and man did it feel so good to finally let it all out (all the secrets no longer controlled me) - I was FREE!!

But - isn't funny (in a strange way) how an entire family often seems to place so much power in one person - as though that person (the scapegoat) could control and deem power over every ones life...... NOT!
