I was young with heart conditions and premature. My name is Shakira. My mother was a smoker and a drinker. She didn't really care what would happen to me if I inhaled to much of the smoke, so I tried not to be around her so much. I had two brothers and two sisters, but I happen to be the middle child. I guess I was the joke of the family they always tried to beat me up and bring me down.
My mom always abuse us if one got in trouble we all got beat with the first thing she seen. I use to think that just because she got abused by all these different men she had took it out on us. I was only little around the age of four. I never had a father figure in my life not really a mother figure either. My mom sleep with different men all the time so I didn't really have no one to look up to at the time.
