You are my birth father and you treated it like some ******* check box on a sheet like it was a ******* option for you but not for my mother. Where were you on those nights where I was having a panic attack and my mom called her 9 year old to the hospital? Or when the 7 year old fell and scraped his gums off? When you said you loved us, why did you disappear without a trace like the fact you loved us made you so scared you had to ******* hide. You're the reason why my mother deals with being beat all the time and lies to the police about her bruises. You tossed her like a grenade and ducked from the explosion.
