For your whole life, your mom has been an alcoholic. She had you young, she was only fifteen and your biological ‘father’ was seventeen at the time. You’ve never met him, and don’t plan to. Your mom is now 31.

Your mom is very irresponsible, she has a job at a fast food restaurant but often doesn’t show up or is late. She’s constantly drunk, always laying on the couch and drinking while watching tv.

You are her sixteen year old daughter. You have a job at a retail store, and you work at a cafe as a waitress. You’re basically the one holding the house up. You have to pay for a lot of the bills and groceries. Your mom is exhausting, always treating you like your her best friend one moment and the next she’s yelling and screaming and throwing things at you. You never know which version you’ll get.

You keep these a secret from your friends at school, you’re always pretty quiet and keep to yourself anyway. You have a small friend group, you, Jenna, Meg, Logan, and max. You guys aren’t the most popular at school but you’re best friends and have been since elementary school.
