| It pays to be strong Jessy, I am so sorry for all the hardship your young life has brought you but you found the inner strengh to make it better and you sure did girl. Congratulations on your nursing degree and for not letting your family drag you down for the rest of your life. May 2007 bring you nothing but happiness and good health. Kristy, please find this inner strength and get yourself on the right track. There comes a time in life that you have to take responsiblity for yourself and not blame others for your problems. I am a true believer that God helps those who help themselves. Good luck to you and just look forward. I also hope the New Year is good to you. You can make it work! Carol & Buddy |

| I hope you can work all of this out. I do believe that childhood shapes us [B]but[B]you can't use it for an excuse. You need to get things right in your life. If that means getting this out in the open to your parents then you need to do it. You have to remember your actions are affecting yourchild. You don't want your child(ren) to have a negitive childhood too. When you're depressed it affects everyone around you. Please seek help. Good luck to you in this New Year!

| hi kristy, i think that if you feel confronting these people are really going to help you better yourself and your family than do it learn what you need to, but if you think that confronting them is what to do since you think about this subject all the time than you need to re evaluate, and work on yourself since confronting wont really help it will only make matters worse and you may find out things you really just dont want to know. i can relate in a different situation but same type of way and i found out things i didnt want to know, and i had to learn to get myself over it. but you need to do what you think is best for yourself, but be prepard you may find out things you didnt want to know, or you may make ammends.

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | Kristy, this is a new year. You can start over. There is something I think you should do. You might think I'm insane, but it helped me. Is there a QUIET place you can go alone? If there is, go there. Just sit there alone for as long as you need to. Then find a little rock and think about your problems, you're giving them all to the little rock. Think about any problems you had, anything that made you angy, all of your problems. When you're done with that, throw the little rock as far away as you can. It really will help you feel better. It helped me. I'm sorry for everything you went through as a child. That's terrible. But it's time to move on. You need to think about your own kids and their future. Good luck.

| Life is not easy for anyone. Everybody has choices to make every day. It is up to you as an individual, a wife and most of all a mother to put the past behind you and move on. If you feel you need to confront your parents, then speak your peace and move on. If you cannot personally confront them then write them a letter and let them know how you feel. It is up to you if you choose to send it to them or not. A lot of times just putting thoughts to paper really clears your head. I would recommend writing in a journal everyday, let your thoughts go and put everything down, don't edit, don't worry about spelling. It is not an easy thing to do to let your true feelings out, but it is a good exercise and good for your soul. Just buy some spiral notebooks, they are inexpensive. As you finish one, you can burn it or save to read at a later date. All the counslers in the world can't help you, until you decide you want to change and have a good life. It is always your choice. Good Luck & Happy 2007

| I may be out of place here, because I had a great childhood and a wonderful family, so I can't put myself in the shoes of anyone who had a less than perfect childhood. But, for anyone that can't put their past behind them and feel their upbringing is to blame for their life now, PLEASE read "A Child Called It" by Dave Pelzer. It is an autobiography and there are 2 additional books that follow him while he grows up. My daughter had to read it in English class and every student and even the teacher were in tears as they discussed it. I recommend it even to those who had a happy childhood - it will help us understand the behavior of those who didn't. So, Please, read this and you can see how the past can be used to help you grow. It is a truely incredible journey for a child to make and an even more incredible adult that he made of himself. (This is a true story about the worst child abuse case in California's history).

| You are the only one ultimately responsible for your path in life. There are many people out there who have had a bad childhood, you have to decide if you are going to let that bring you down or if you are going to forgive and forget and enjoy life. This is a new year and should be a new start for you. Start by doing something just for you take a class or join some type of club start a new hobby etc.. Life is just to short to harbour anger or resentment, think of everyday as if it were your last day and enjoy it and the people around you. I hope you find that happiness and that things are better for you this year. |

Omg that was an awesome book!! Have you read the whole series of his books, it takes you thru his whole life and what he endured. If that man can accomplish all he did after that childhood than there is hope for everyone. Good recommendation!!! | |

| I read the whole series and I want to read it again but I know I'll cry thru it, just like the first time. I know when I am having a "poor me" day all I have to do is think about what he went thru and then I feel like the luckiest person alive. It sure gave me a new perspective on life. I wish everyone would take the time to read it.
