I didn't like being a child. I couldn't wait to grow up. I thought that all my problems would be resolved as an adult because adults were mature, they were not cruel like children, they were just and kind. How I decided this I don't know because the adults in my life were none of these things, but I guess I thought that I would be like that as an adult.
As a child, I had no control over any of my circumstances, experience or even my body. Perhaps I thought I would have control over these things when I grew up - funny or tragic actually that I have not been able to take ownership of my own body and feelings up until now and in some respects I have remained a perpetual child in not assuming responsibility for my entire experience.
I lived at 433 Newport Road, Hull, Massachusetts 02045 from age 2 until 19.
