A child that grew up with this much struggle, I could not recall a time in my life that I felt less safe or well off. However, I am certain that I was sheltered from a lot of other things that could have happened to me, mainly because I used to be in my house a lot with my big brother; whenever he did not go to school or help the family out with laborious chores that he had to do daily.…
