Is it just me or does it seem unfair to
refer to a single parent family as 'broken'? Sure, single mums
sometimes get stressed and drown their children in the bath, but
that's not to say a couple with a kid is any better. I'm from a
single parent family and to be honest I prefer it to when my parents
were together. Some people just aren't right for one another and
before my Mum moved out I wasn't allowed to stay up late, so I can't
say I was too arsed. If anything was upsetting, I suppose it was the
inevitable custody battle where parents fight over who gets to keep
their child. It's not that I felt torn between the two but rather
that it simply never happened, as both sides were happy to leave me
with the other. Bastards! It was a shame too as not only was my
loyalty up for the highest bidder but I think a large scale game of
'Who Loves Me The Most' would have done wonders for my confidence.
Sure I was almost in my twenties by the time they got divorced but
fuck them it'd still have been nice.
