- It's Not You!
If your parents are having problems, its not your fault. If they are always arguing, its not your fault. Even if your parents tell you that you are the reason they have a divorce or are getting one... its not your fault! You did nothing wrong. You are the child, they are the adult. They should act like adults and handle their business.

- I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings
To be left alone on the tightrope of youthful unknowing is to experience the excruciating beauty of full freedom and the threat of eternal indecision. Few, if any, survive their teens. Most surrender to the vague but murderous pressure of adult conformity. It becomes easier to die and avoid conflict than to maintain a constant battle with the superior forces of maturity.
