Personal Narrative: The Glass Castle

The Glass Castle and jennet walls and I kinda have something in common, she had a pretty dysfunctional family with christmases and moving a lot. Jennet had many obstacles she had to go through with moving all the time she had to make new friends she was bullied her parents didn't have a whole lot of money so they had to skimp with things like christmas. She had siblings that she had to look out for since her parents were kinda neglective.This didn't stop her from being successful in her life though she is now happily married and she know has a different look out on life then most of use from growing up on the streets she doesn't take anything for granted. She Looks Out for her mother now as best as she can and her had has past away in the meantime

He gave me a hug and told me we were going to get my things. When we went to get my stuff my mother wasn't allowed to be there but it didn't take us long. My mom had to pay child support and got her visitations every two weeks like my dad had and that was an on off thing as well some times i went with her and sometimes she didn't show There was a time when i was about 7-8 i didn't shee her that whole year I never really go anything for christmas or birthdays and to be honest i think she holds that tap they plain in court against me hahah. That never bothered me i was never close to her One example i have is I have played football since 5th grade every year and say we had 10 games a season that equals 50 I can remember her going to One and that was parent night in the 7th grade. She never supported any of my sports not just football but wrestling baseball soccer. Now it wasn't all peaches living with dad. He's a dude so things like hand home cooked meals don't happen but other than that as far as i can remember it was good we ate a lot of pizza that's our favorite food he caught on to the parenting thing a little better, One thing he did that means the most to me was to make a deal with me If i was to play football he would be at every game and he was for 8 solid years he didn't miss one by mother on the other hand came to one parent night in 7th grade. We did move a lot! From upper to findlay to Mount

I went over to visit one weekend I drove my new car it wasn't new but it was like the oldsmobile it wasn't perfect but i bought it by myself so i really liked it, well at the time my mother's husband backed into it and crushed the door and I was pretty mad about it but i cooled off i knew insurance would pay for it but about a week later I found out that they were trying to get out of fixing my car they called it a piece of junk and it didn't need fixed well that was a struggle talking to the cops and insurance. This point was the breaking point. I stopped going over there I stopped communication. Now it wasn't because of the car it was the fact i had to work for my car i had to save and grind with no help from her she voided out most birthdays and christmas like jenner's family except mine could afford it. My grandmother agreed with me, That was crap she hit my car and tried to get out of it but there wasn't anything she could do about it. I haven't talk to her since that happened and honestly I don't really care it's a lot less stress. I probably will talk to her again idk when right now i have so much other stuff to worry about that it's not a priority I'm focusing on graduation and enrollment to college, simply enjoying my last summer break I think i want to go to myrtle beach this summer Thats going to take some research
