This is no place to raise a child I think as my dad has me on the ground by my throat. My sister Emily in the corner holding my brother Andrew them both in tears. I have to fight back, but I'm getting ahead of myself. My name is Jace I'm 16 years old and I work at an auto repair shop to support my two siblings.
Emily is 5 and she is amazing she is funny and so full of life I know if I'm with her I will be laughing and having fun. She is sweet kind and so lovable. Andrew is 2 and he is just a little ball of energy he is also very amazing. He loves to give nuckles, high fives, hugs, and kisses. He loves to be tickled and to kick a soccer ball he is very hyper and so full of love.
Now here is a question you might ask yourself. Why me a 16 year old boy have to work to support my siblings? Well the answer is painful yet simple my mom died a year ago in a car crash a drunk hit her and she died on impact. I was in the car with her. Since my mom's death my dad has changed back to his old ways he is a drunk and beats on me he abuses me physically, mentally, emotionally, and verbally.
My biggest fear is that he one day he beats my sister or brother. I can't just leave because I can't afford it yet with three people to support we live comfortable and thats all I don't support my dad I just pay the bills. I don't go to school any more either. It's not easy but I refuse to give up. So relax and get comfy because I have a good story to tell.
