The Crime of Puberty

I realize upon reflection that the crime I committed was moving from child to woman. This intensified my mother's controlling behavior and subsequently became the campaign of hate against me. She recruited my step father who was my biggest fan. I was once the favorite child and I became publicly despised, ridiculed and shamed. So I walked away and the hatred became more intense with frequent threats. I stayed away found jobs and a car and never returned. The damage still holds today. What remains of my family is nothing. It's like visiting a post nuclear war site.
