My name is Jakayla smith I'm from California. I was born march 25 1998 and I have 3 brothers alex, tommy ,and Xavier. Tommy is the oldest he's 21 , alex is 17 , Xavier is 15 , and last but not least Me Jakayla smith I'm 19. We've lived in California our whole life, back and fourth from plant city Florida to California. We had a rough childhood growing up & we didn't have much. We weren't the richest family, we had everything we needed but not always what we wanted. I knew not to ask for certain things my mother couldn't afford because she was a single mother and didn't have much help. Me and my brothers grew up with and without a father sometimes he came in and out of our lives so much that after a while we stopped noticing. Not having a father around really messed all of us up my brothers had no father figure to teach them how to be a man, I had no father figure to teach me how to love a man. Even though we didn't have a father we made the best of it, my mother was the best mother she could be to us & the best father she could have ever been. Things happen people change and after a while we all moved on and stopped caring about our father all he did was leave us with broken promises and a heart full of pain and lies. I'll never forgive a man that doesn't even claim us or want anything to do with us, but I'll always wonder why he didn't want us or even try to help my struggling mother, she struggled so much to the point were she would do anything to provide for her kids.
