"Journal Writing" on The Myth of Doomed Kids by Bella DePaulo

I grew up with my parents divorcing when  I was 9 years old. I choose to live with my father in a single parent household. I would go visit my mother, she had remarried so I guess you can say it was a two parent household my mother and step-father. When I turned 12 my aunt came to live with my dad and I so I guess you can say it was a parent and relative household. DePaulo's characterization of my family is agreeable and I do believe it to be fair. She brings up some strong points about that there is not much of a difference between some of the data that was presented. But for myself I can say I did not fall under these statistics at all. Like I stated in the beginning I lived with my father and a relative and I never had an issue with drugs and or alcohol in my life and never will.
