"We are so disappointed in you." I know. "Can't you be more like your brothers?" I can't. "You are such an ungrateful child." I'm sorry. "Stop crying, get over it." Yes Ma'am. "You don't deserve what you have." Yes Sir.

From The Perspective of Silence
"We are so disappointed in you." I know. "Can't you be more like your brothers?" I can't. "You are such an ungrateful child." I'm sorry. "Stop crying, get over it." Yes Ma'am. "You don't deserve what you have." Yes Sir.
So, I come from a very bad family, I'll admit. My parents are verbally abusive, and I can do nothing but stand by and nod. I'm afraid. I really am.
