I grew up with a mother who was a prostitute and a drug addict. I had to look after my siblings while she always had sketchy men over. I intentionally made myself a target so they would sexaully assault me, rather then them. Social services got involved and we were all apprehended, They both went to rich, loving families, while i went to live with my biological father and stepmother. I was beaten and tortured there for 10 years. I would not change a thing, because it was me who took the beatings, and not them.
