“My dad faked a medical emergency to avoid getting arrested.”
"When my brother was born , I had to babysit him anytime my dad and stepmom demanded. They 'paid' me $5 an hour, but it went on a 'tab' they had been keeping for what it cost to raise me — school supplies, lunch money, gym uniforms, basketball shoes, etc. They kept a tally, and each month they'd calculate how many hours they'd made me babysit, multiply it by five, and deduct from the running tab.
"My sister and I just legged it with our nan and left them to deal with the police, who passed us as we were walking to the nearest bus stop. I don't recall the outcome to be honest. I'm 40 now, but I've been with him when he's almost been arrested a few times over the years. My mum says he's always done it.""My mother and sister visited me recently. I'm disabled and housebound, so I have to hire a wheelchair to go out.
