I most certainly have had struggles. I always pulled my weight. I got tired of those who had the same emotional struggles I did, get a free pass when it came to academics, job offers, free this, free educational opportunities. I was in a vocational program in high school, which was wonderful. I always struggled academically and had some trouble there but applied myself. But just because my folks weren't in the poverty belt, I had to work harder than those who were. They got extensions on their course work because they were abused and in the poverty belt. So, if someone who is abused but the family has some money, they are not given some extra time to do their course work?

What am I, chopped liver because I happened to have pulled myself out of a horrible emotional hole? What makes anyone think my emotional struggles weren't debilitating to me, but somehow I pulled it off and carried on and worked my butt off despite everything I was going through.

Is that good enough? I bucked up and never once asked for a handout.

I'm tired of the victim/handout attitude. Bitter? Yes, I suppose I am. It's not fair. I help those who help themselves.
