How many of you believe you had a hard life? When I was a teenager I use to think my life was horrible. My mom kicked me out when I was sixteen. I had no place to go and she didn't care. I stayed where ever I coul find a place to stay for the night untill my sister found out and came from another state that day to come get me. I lived that way for two weeks and it made me lose so much respect for my mom. The reason she kicked me out was because her husband didn't like me. I thought fighting with my mom and her husband constantly and getting suspended from school was so horrible, but now when I think about it, it could have been so much worse. What about you do you think you had a hard life when you were younger?

Hello! You had a tragic story, didn't you? It must have been hard for you. What kind of mother does kick her own child away? Is the legal age in your country 16? Perhaps she kicked you out knowing that you could survive or something like that. Who did call your sister? Was it yourself? My life has been pretty easy up to now. I do not have anything to complain about. I believe I have been living greatly, and I'll be like that forever. I passed through really hard times, but didn't make my life hard. Respectfully, Munhozmib.

Even though there were worst cases, it shows that you had a strong mind and you could hold yourself together while many would have fallen apart.

i used to think so when my mom was harsh on me when i was younger forcing me to study and not allowing me to play games i liked, esp soccer. i need to be home by certain time and i am not allow to roam out to play with friends. i find my life restricted by her a lot. but now thinking back, i am glad she did those cos she loved me and had wanted me to do well. if not, she would not bothered about me and leave me to rot. now, even when life is hard, i would tell myself, life changes, and it would be up in a few years of hardwork. i would not always live a hard life and this keep me going in difficult times.

I think that with my kids now. I wish they would understand I tell them they can't do certain things, it's for their safety, but they think it's just because Im being mean. :) So I guess I have to wait till they are adults before they realize the true reason behind it.
