Maddy

Like they would get phone calls from their dad and they would.

So I was like, what is happening here?

Because I didn't have any answers.

And not that like, I was so young.

It's not like they're going to sit there and be like, hey, like this is what happened.

And I think also they were processing in their own ways, like,

what that was and just talking to each other and just trying to protect me so much from him, I guess.

I think they, you know, you try and control something so much it ends up hurting it at the end.

So they're like doing their thing and my brother, he just, he starts doing drugs.

He starts sneaking out.

He starts just being really disrespectful and he just feels like, you can tell, he feels like the man of the house because he's the oldest one and

They had to go through all this stuff.

It's just us four.

So he starts just getting this ego that was just so out of hand.

And nobody would really put him in his place.

Nobody... My mom was always gone.

So him and my sister were like best friends.

So anytime he...

I like, for example, he would come home and we would have to have the whole house clean before my mom got off of work.

And I was doing most of that stuff.
