About Abuse: 

I didn't even know it was abuse for a long time. I didn't know that it was wrong. Me and my adoptive mom are not close, have never been close and after many unsuccessful attempts on my part to sever all ties I am still in contact with her. Not frequently though. She had a deadbolt on her bedroom door and hid all the food in her room. Me and my younger brothers were homeschooled. She would lock us outside if she didn't want to be around us anymore. She would hit us with 8ft horse whips or whatever she could get her hands on. She is bi-polar and doesn't take her meds so I have to take that into account...maybe things would be differant if she would take her medication.

About adoption: 

I have reunited with my birthfamily over the summer. I have a full older brother who lives with my birthmom and I have two younger half sisters. One is my birthdads and the other is my birthmoms. My birthdad is an alcoholic and has been since he was 17. My birthmom is a meth user and so is my brother.
