Narcissistic parents

peace and relaxation! Unfortunately, I am still at school, doing matric and I need my parents, my home, and, sometimes I may think he is a pain, but I need my brother too. Life at home is great with free food, free Wi-Fi, free boarding and free entertainment. I just open the fridge and, ta-da! FOOD! I don’t have to pay a cent for any of those luxuries that are handed to me from my loving, providing parents, “gratis”. If I need to go anywhere, all I have to do is ask my mom, who in the…

People’s privacy has been violated for many years but they don’t know that. Back then it was different because they were forced to being watched for every little thing they did. For example, in the book 1984 the people were forced to live with a big screen in there room so they can be watched for 24/7. The violation of people’s privacy is good and bad at the same time because they can catch someone who is planning on doing something bad. But then again there are others out there that are not…

Domestic Abuse has been the only thing I could remember since I was a little girl, It all had started with my biological father, the one who had helped give me life. The first time came to me as a blur; I was too young to register the fact that my flesh and blood had just hit me. The second wasn't much different, neither was the third. He would tell me he was just playing around, and It was ok not long after that It had continued. I had perpetually hoped and longed for those father-daughter…

It all started when my first cousin proposed to his bride to be and suggested that he and his wife have an extravagant destination wedding. I come from a huge family, so he reached out to all his 1st, 2nd immediate cousins and family members to come on this trip to celebrate their love. I have always been afraid of flying and not to mention have never been out the country. I had to apply for a passport and save money up to pay for this trip which I didn’t realize how my life changed before it…

The trip started at the end of the first week of Ramadan me, and three of my cousins went together our father dropped us off at the airport, as we went inside we sat in a circle with the rest of the group and the group leader in the middle was telling us about what is going to happen when we get there and what should we do, he said that we have to fill up something in the plane and when we arrive we are going to be free to go and explore the city which is Manchester. Our way to Manchester the…

Picture waking up on your sixteenth birthday, only to find out your sister has run away to be with her boyfriend in New York. All she left behind is a note and your crying, worried parents. That is the situation in which Caitlin O’Koren found herself in Sarah Dessen’s Dreamland. Caitlin and Cass, her sister, were extremely close, but Caitlin did not have any idea she was leaving, nor did anyone else in her life. All of her family and friends were in shock that Cass, who seemed to lead a perfect…

To my sex machine, Right now I'm in an orphanage for kids, of course it’s an orphanage for kids, who else could it be for?!? Silly me. I am not saying that I'd like to adopt or make babies, all those would come in time. I just found it crazy that I had to donate around a Euro for socks that are worth a third of that, but then again, it’s always all ways for the kids. It’s kinda sad to think about those babies and their abused mothers. It’s a scary world out there, but you can’t prevent…

this is my first time telling someone and that someone is you. It was the middle of the night it was me and my brother and our parents was out for their honeymoon. So it was my job to babysit my brother for 2 hours and by the way my little brother is a brat he messes around all the time and breaks stuff I wish we could have someone adapt him right know right then but my parents always say no cause they love him. It just weird but I bought him a game Which is call of duty black ops 3 or is…

On January 15 I was on the way to the airport, getting ready for my trip to California, because today was the day I go see my 2 children and my other relatives. I haven’t seen them in 2 years, i’ve been so busy with work and traveling I haven’t been able to call them or visit them, so im so excited about this trip. As I pulled up to the airport my phone started ringing and it was my sister Angelica, our names are similar, hers is Angelica and mine is Angela. I didn’t answer because I wanted to…

They say it is something every kid has to go through. Like losing your first tooth. The fear eats you inside and out and the moment the pain of the tooth leaves you, is the same moment you realize you don't have it anymore. The aftermath is revealed, and the goofy smiles appear. But, a split second is not all it took for my “tooth” to be pulled. Her name was Alyssa. Alyssa was my bully, but she hadn't always been. At first she was that one person who could make the darkest days turn into the…
