" I can't this weekend I have to go to my dad's" this is a sentence I have said many times over the course of my life. My parents are divorced. this isn't a sob story about watching my family fall apart , this the story of how it changed me. I was only two years old when my parents split up so basically my entire life has been two separate houses and two separate families. If I didn't have two sets of parents I wouldn't be the person I am to day. Growing up with two sets of parents seems awesome because you know two birthdays ,two Christmases, etc. But it's actually hard having for four people to obey and listen to for advice.
I live with my mom and I visit my dad's house. It's weird to talk to my dad because he might be my dad but I don't know him. I lived with my mother for my entire life and grew in a house with my mom and sister only. My sister and I grew up being told to be independent and be ourselves and doing that around my father, stepmom and stepdad is extremely difficult because the person I am was created by only my mom and sister no one else.
My entire being has been shaped and molded by my parents divorce.
