Other people have it worse so I shouldn’t complain..
I‘ll keep it short cause I could probably write a whole book about my life when my olde sister and I were younger our mom married a man I was too young to know what was going on and didn’t see him as a evil stepfather since he genuinely took care of us but as I grew I realized how messed up everything was if me or my sister lied about anything litarally anything we would have to wash our mouth with a bar of soap and I thought was normal if we wanted to eat food from the kitchen we would have to ask and if we didn’t it would be considered stealing soon my mom gave birth to twin girls that’s when I started to realize the difference but I just thought probably cause we’re older bro I was seven. One time when my mom went to visit her mom we are home alone with the man she married and he asked us to go grocery shopping naturally we said yes cause that’s a normal thing to do since the grocery store was only like a 20 min walk away he gave my older sister the money(20 dollars) she was 11 and I was 8 anyway when we reached the cashier my sister realized the money was gone but a man behind us offered to pay for us he was really nice about it anyway we went back home and he asked us where the receipt was my sister told what happen and that’s why we don’t have the reciept let’s just say he got mad for whatever reason and beat the crap out of my sister but then later he apologized and blamed it on his anger issues and told us not to tell our mom that’s all I’m gonna write cause I said I’ll keep it short but maybe I’ll talk more about it
