I admire your mother greatly for providing for you and your siblings like she did. Many moms who married young and had children at a young age would have not wanted to raise kids practically by herself. I also admire you for respecting your parents by not blaming them for the fact you were rarely our of her site.
I am glad you were close to your cousin. Was he sort of a mentor or even a big brother to you growing up? I had a cousin like that. They treated me better than the cousins who were closer to my own age.
Are your parents still together? I have great respect for your mom for staying with him despite his abuse and drinking. I am fortunate not to have had that problem. Though my parents argued a lot, screamed at each other and their kids and spanked us out of anger, they weren't abusive toward us. At least not to a huge extent. My dad got satisfaction of shaming me in front of his friends and mine. There was a friend of my dad who enjoyed his doing it so much that he'd bring up a subject he knew my dad would get all riled up about to hear him yell at me.
How did you get along with your siblings? How may do you have? I had four sisters. The oldest drank/depressed herself to death. The second oldest was like a second mommy to me and helped my mom out by caring for me and singing me to sleep when I was very young. Even through college, I couldn't sleep without listening to music.
Sister #3 and I weren't really that close until I was about 12 or 13. She and I would hang out in her room and she'd tape songs from the radio, which I got for Christmas one year.
Then there was me. Next came my younger sister. We are only two years, one month and four days apart and share a great bond ever since we were VERY young. She was into girly things such as dolls and dresses.
I'd lovingly play house with her and her dolls. She'd hand them to me to spank. In time, she'd take the doll's place over my knee to be spanked. I never hit her hard because I loved her too much to cause her any pain. Eventually, I began baring her bottom for the spankings. We'd play every day together. When we were 15 and 13 we didn't play our games anymore but did hang out together and were the same size. People thought we were twins.
At 7 she became ill and has not had a well day in almost a half century yet with all she has gone through, she's living her childhood dream to be a wife and mother. In all these years of being sick, she is yet to complain. She and I have kept that special bond over all these years.
I am overseas at the moment and can only communicate with her and others through email and with SW friends through this site. I will probably be moving to Brazil in the near future but will continue to keep close touch with people I know and love in the US. Though everything takes longer here, I can live MUCH simpler life for a lot less money here than I ever could in the US.
Thanks for keeping up with me. Yes, I enjoyed those games very much and found plenty of kids to play them with who enjoyed them as much as I did. Were you not close to any of your siblings? Is your dad still living? How is he now after all these years. How is your mom getting along?
My second mother of a sister is now "quad" due to an accident and a stroke. She can only move her eyes. She lives in Hawaii, where she was teaching in a small private school there before suffering an accident leaving her prone to a wheel chair. She returned to teaching only to suffer a double stroke a year later which left her incapable of swallowing, talking or even moving any part of her body except her eyes.
Sister #3 has suffered from a very DEEP depression since loosing her husband.
Sister #4, as I mentioned, is quite ill but we keep good touch. She has no kidney and has to go to dialysis three times a week. Her other organs are not doing well, either. I do worry for her and can only receive news through email right now.
Trust you are well and thanks for being so good to respond.
