my mom was on meth & left me with a man she didn’t know, & he graped me. I was 4. I thought she got sober after that. She didn’t. She hid it from me and lied to me. When I was 8, she got with my step dad. he was the only father figure I ever knew, but not a good one. He got high around all of us kids. Drank until he blacked out. He had me roll his cigarettes for him, serve his drugs for him, he crushed pills in front of me, and did fentanyl strips in front of me. I was the oldest sibling to my brother and sister who were toddlers. I remember constantly walking around the house making sure there was nothing they could get into. I became their second mom. I always changed them. I gave them baths almost every night. I watched him physically abuse my mom over and over, and wonder why she always took him back. He eventually abused me as well. We were SO MUCH better without him. Then when I was 12, cps came to my school off a tip they received. I told them everything because I was tired of holding it all in. Not knowing they’d take us away. We lived with my grandma. Who’s diabetic and has a list of her own health problems. I had to REALLY take care of my siblings then. We lived with her for a year. Every time we went to visitations or court I’m asking my mom why aren’t we coming back yet? Aren’t you clean now? She lied over and over. Eventually she did get clean. & left him. We went back “home.” Things were good for awhile. She got a good job, we moved into a nice house. Then she let him back. This time tho, I was 14. I was tired of him. They got into a physical fight, and he was hitting her in front of me and my 3 & 4 year old brother and sister. I stepped in. & he beat the shit out of me. Pulled me by my hair through the house, punched me in my eye, spit in my face, held me down. He went to prison for 10 years. When I turned 24 he was released. She drove over 14 hours to go get him out of prison.
