Intro

Just the thought of being a parent/guardian for 3 kids at age fifth-teen was the scariest thing ever. I Amber Jayde Monroe, now age seven-teen with three siblings to take care of on my own, in the cold New York city. Mother left us when she was tired of us, which was 2 years ago. I have became the mom and dad to my three younger siblings, Mark; nine, Logan; five, and Lilly who is three.

Our father left us when he found out that my mom had cheated on him. Mom had another kid with another man, which is Logan's dad. My little sister came two years after Logan by another man. Mom said she "loved." Lily's dad and my mom only knew each other for nine months and they got married and had Lily, which I am grateful for. So now you can guess that the four of us are half siblings.

By now you should know that I am seventeen year old taking care of three kids in New York by myself, well not really. Living in new York which means you either are extremely rich or struggling. I am close to struggling, I get all my support from my boyfriend, Jerald.

Jerald and I found each other through mutual friends, I was living with a friend one day and I saw Jerald. We hit it off, he was nice and I fell in love with him but little did you know all the wanted was to use me. But being a guardian for three kids is hard so I went with him and he provided everything. Jerald provided us a roof under our heads, food on the table, shoes on our feet, and clothing on our backs.

I am a highschool drop out, I wanted to major in business but after mom left I couldn't do that. I wanted to be in a better state than I was when mom and dad were here. We lived in a small area and had no space at all for the used to be six of us.
