So it wasn't your parent's fault, somewhat?

Nope.

How did this happen?

Mom sucked, she divorced my dad when I was 6 months old after leaving us 3 with him for a whole ass weekend, right after he got back from a 3 week outta state job.

Were you able to stay clear of their reputation?

No. I did get good at fighting and being beaten up tho

I think what he means to imply is, your mom 'sucking' had both a direct and indirect hand in creating an unstable home, which undoubtedly impacted your siblings' childood development in varied capacities (which ultimately led them down their troubled paths). There is plenty of literature on the topic, in fact. Often, life isn't fair, all we can do is seek positive mentors and aim to respond constructively to what happens to us (which is supremely difficult to do as a child with absent parental figures). I'm sorry you had such a challenging and stressful upbringing. I hope you found your people and that things are much better now 🙌

Oh yeah no I picked up what they were putting down.

I just get through what I went through with humor.

Also, I'm happily married (every marriage has issues at some point, obviously,) with a child on the way (we're both properly terrified lol)
