You can only clean out the cupboard. Plenty of people worse off than...that little Insult.P.S.What I mean is that,this was probably too personal,if you were left on the shelf or given the flick because you didn't fit or there was was too many of you at home and fostered out..it beats being 'abused'..the ultimate insult to a child.Being abandonned can make you Bitter but you come to terms with it..you have to..in other words..you cannot ever forgive an abuser..but you can make peace..with the lesser "insult". Often the past is past and you can accept that..and you should..no-one's perfect..But,it is not so easy in the other direction.Forgiveness is relative.. I am sorry if I appeared to offend you..Never ever,my intention.

Well, I wasn't ever abandoned as a child and don't really have issues with it because of my parents. But I was abandoned many times by my skiing buddies when I tried to learn to snowboard (went back to skiing, so much better at it). So now whenever anyone falls behind, even just to tie their shoes, I make everyone stop and wait.

I hate being left alone. I am one who needs company always!
I remember one episode where I was supposed to meet my mum at the local Dunkin Donuts store after ballet class. It was a rainy Saturday and when I made my way to the place, I didn't see her at all. I waited for what seemed an eternity to me and then I began asking strangers if they'd seen my mum (stupid, I know, but I was 5...). I then decided to walk to the nearest bus stop and thought that I'd go home (despite not having any money on me...) All ended well because my mum found me!
Now, if I'm waiting for friends at cafes or malls, I feel anxious if they don't turn up at the stipulated time. It's a blessing in disguise that most of the time, I'm the one running late. I hate dealing with waiting!

I was never abandoned when I was a child. As a matter of fact my parents were always a little to over protective.

I agree with the person above me. My dad was never there and my mom wanted the partying life. I saw too much by the time I was 8 I knew what I was after in life and it wasn't what I was seeing~! Today my mom is no longer apart of my life, I have written her out. My dad died and I wasn't even told, I found out through the local news paper. I'm happily married with my husband being everything my dad never was~!

My mom chose drugs over me when I was child and she gave me to my Aunt ; she was just as retarded as my mother. I went from one bad situation to the next bad situation and it's affecting the way I raise my own kids now. They just try to run all over me, but I have to pep talk myself so that I won't lose my mind - My kids are 16, 10 & 4...The 16 year old just turned 16 on Monday and I about ready to kill and bury her without anyone knowing it...j/k
