This is a brief story of my life so far, (in parts) I realize it’s not as exciting or traumatic as other peoples, but I have learnt things, experienced shit, and made mistakes. This is just me sharing my story.When I was born, my mother was only 15, my father was 20, he as an abusive alcoholic. My grandmother (Nan) had practically kicked my mother out of her house. And my dad’s mother was an alcoholic also. My father would beat my mother physically, and then abuse her verbally and mentally. I didn’t have a crib cause it was smashed to pieces. I don’t even know the number of houses I have lived in, because we had to move all the time because we couldn’t pay the rent, all our money was going on alcohol. Finally when I was around the age of one, my mother finally had enough of getting punched and kicked, of not having anywhere to live, of not being allowed any friends. She left. To me that makes her one of the bravest people I know.Me and my mother went into a woman’s refuge. Where we were given clothes, food and shelter. Mum had met a guy while she was with my dad, and now he offered to help us. Dion was good to my mum, and gave her confidence to rebuild her life. They are still together now; meeting at 17 years old, it’s been almost 17 years.My mum got a job, and we started flatting with friends, we had to share a room, I would have been about 3 then, we didn’t have much stuff, but we had each other, and we had a life. Unfortunately I still had to see my father every weekend, and he had started playing mind games. He would treat me like a princess and spoil me rotten, so I wouldn’t want to go back to my mum. As I got older, this would all just turn into mental abuse, where I would be made to feel like everything that went wrong was my fault, that I was a burden, nobody loved me or wanted me, well you get the idea. To be continued . . .
i love u so much Tori i didn't know u went thought this because i know u didn't really want to talk about this but now i do know and i will never let this happen to you again. I will always be hear for you to talk to me about anything and to love and shear special moments together.

For as long as we are together Tori nothing can stop our love for one an other..
