The sooner, the better...Darlene is right!
by: Anonymous

Britney, something's seriously wrong with your dad and stepmother because they have serious problems and they need help...but you need help too, so the sooner you tell someone about it, the better. Darlene's right all along! Please tell someone you really trust and keep telling until he/she will finally listen to you and help you. Oh, and say "no" to suicide because suicide is a really permanent solution to many temporary problems and doing so will only let your parents win, so don't do it.
