I'm so sorry that you have to live like that.People can be so cruel... help out your mother, get a part time job, at weekends for example, go work at a caffee or something, it will help you get profit and more confortable financial issues. - I don't know how it is to live like that, but I know how it is to always be worrying, at all time, that maybe you wont have enough money... I've been passed through that. - Best wishes for you and your family, may it have a happy ending!

this kid is very intelligent and strong but i cant help but notice the guilt on his grandmothers face and how she plays it off as a supportive mother just with a bad marriage and some how she has no idea how his mother got that way. I don't know if the guilt is from either not stepping in and helping his mother with her poor choices or something more direct.. if one thing i know is that it starts at home.. This kid has a bright future just by recognizing the problem. i hope he stays clean.

you only learn to appreciate someone much like parents when you they are not there for you anymore. Then you notice how much they have done for you.
