Away Cant Be Far Enough

Jun 25, 2005 01:05

So lets do a quick break down of why i cant wait to leave my house and never come back, but before lets have a little talk.

Most teens do not like their family and thats understandable and even a little stereotypical. In the end i just honestly dislike my family, if i didn't have to live with them i wouldn't. Post high school i dont ever plan on really speaking with them after my freshman year in college when i can move all my stuff into a house. After that i'm done, they shouldn't expect me for Christmas, birthdays not even weddings. I never want to see them again.

Now on to the reason/s:

Brother: Matthew Cook; 21

My brother in three words: bitter, fat, and lonely. He is a 21 year old with a heart condition, with drinking, anger, and weight issues. He still lives at home, and goes to a small technical school with no girls. Often late at night i become his focus point of rage. Oh yes and he is still living at home, he is a chronic "know it all", and over all just a big asshole. Pron to taking is bitterness and rage out of me because i'm enjoying my life and he hates his. At the end of the day i cant stand that in the family he gets respected and honored when he is really such a horrible person. He reminds me time and time again of the person i don't want to be.

Mother: Janice Cook; 57

I used to love my mother, but at the end of the day she is to crazy to love. I never knew how crazy until last fall when our well broke. A week was spent yelling and crying and slamming doors over something so silly it really showed me how wrong my mother sense of value is. Also at this point, she only half ass cares about my life. She is far to concerned with her granddaughter, or trying to get a grandchild out of my sister or what great project my brother is working on to even care about my days. Sure right now its nice not having a mother that cares but on some levels it still hurts. I just want to leave and start a family were i will love my kids until the day i die, and not give up on any of them no matter what.

Cook Family: Maggie, Matt (D), Mike, Eydie (G), Micheal ; ages vary

I want to leave to start a family where the member actually support one another. My family has its moment but at the end of the day its like we are looking out for only ourselves. I guess its just me, but i thought family was a bond and community to lead on and to give strength too. I don't want to see this people ever again if i have too.

It just goes to show parents have to do more than just be there. My parents were always there, but it doesn't mean they taught me a damn thing. I learn from my own falls and own mistakes. I have learned more from friends, teachers and lovers then my family. I want to be a parent that teaches there children about love, live, music, religion, or anything else they want to know about, not just be around.
I just want a fresh start at family. I want to leave and make the family i dreamed of, not the one i got stuck with.
