Wow. sounds like you had a pretty rough start to becoming your own man, independent and self sufficient, your words inspires me Shannon I.very much appreciate it .
My plan is to basically start college, find some way to live on my own away from negative influences until I get to the point where I can take things people say as being either from their own insecurity or like you said, as information.
I have tried alot in the past year to try and push my dad to realize he is a doormat and to make change but he is very resistant to any change that requires getting out of comfort zone. I am coming to realize that there is little point me wasting my energy trying to fix my dad when I should instead carry on my journey so I can be an example to my children if I get some.
It still makes me sad that a man is happy to be a doormat as long as he feels secure and that everything is going well in terms of my mum being happy or in control.
I will continue with AM for the months to come and when I finish Am 5 I hope to get some money for Am 6 and carry on my journey
