Overcoming Guilty
Have you ever wondered what it's like to get guilt tripped by your own father? I never did, but unfortunately it happened frequently. The most prominent time that I can recall is when my mom and sister thought he was back on drugs. I was in the 7th grade. I got brought into the situation by my mom. She ask me to go into the bathroom with him, as a precaution, so he wouldn’t tamper with the drug test. Before he took the test, he leaned down towards me and asked “Do you want your dad to stay, do you still want a father”. Who asks their child this question? This was not the first time nor would it be the last.
As a child I grew up knowing my parents didn’t have the best relationship and argued a lot. I remember walking in on those arguments.
