I always thought a family was something good and that they'll love you. Before I knew it I was living with my grandma for the first 10 years of my life. I had already known my sister and brother but I never got to really know my parents I just saw them. I always thought they were great people. When I met them it was the complete opposite. My dad was a drunk who was always angry and my mom loved taking her anger out on other people. Before I knew it I was already used to the the cuts and bruises. I always tried to hide it from my friends. My friends became my new family. To me family isn't blood it's who makes you smile.
