Dad's disappointment:
I lived with my mom all my life until i decided i wanted to see what my dad's was like. i was 13 when i moved in. this was the summer i was molested by my brothers best friend. at first everything was going great. then he divorced his 2nd wife. everything went down hill from there. if i did something "Wrong" i would get hit. my dad would take off his belt and hit my back and legs with it. he called me a slut and would say i never did anything right. he would always be high or drinking. i only saw him when he was passed out or getting up to use the rest room. i thought everything would blow over but it didn't. for two years i lived like this. if i missed a homework assignment because i was cleaning up after my dad and his new girlfriend he would take off his belt. i never told anyone about it because i blamed myself for moving in with him. i now live with my mom and i am a lot better. i don't have to make excuses for why my back hurts or why i can't dress in P.E. i stopped blaming myself. i used to cut but i don't anymore. i had a lot i was dealing with and my dad didn't help at all. i used my life to help my friends. i have been going to counseling once a week and my self esteem has been improving.
