    I spent all summer babysitting my little cousin so I could save up enough money to buy a used Sega Genesis from the pawn shop. About Two weeks later my brother stole it and took it to his house a town over. My mom just shrugged it off. Childhood is a magical time.

          I think they were just expressing empathy. If so, I agree with that sentiment. Your family done you dirty. Hope things are better now, or shortly will be.

            Lol I’m sure they were. It’s a joke my friends and I say. If you have a trauma filled life, sometimes you start to tell a story you think is funny but then you see the look of horror on other people’s faces. And you’re like oh this isn’t considered normal is it. But my life is much much better thank you!
