The reason I am easily prodded is because I can't let my guard down or people will lie to me again. You try looking like an idiot when you realize a Mcdonalds meal isn't Twelve Dollars , but six. I looked like a complete fool handing that cashier twelve dollars instead of six. You try realizing that you could actually afford some decent clothing instead of things with holes in them, or too tight to wear. I was USED by the very people that are supposed to protect me, which is why my guard is set to defense. NO ONE told you MY story ,they all played victim and lied to you. YOU try surviving on JUST T.v tray meals, or ramen noodles. YOU try begging for shoes that don't have holes in them. I STRUGGLED to get where I am today. I FIGHT back because I keep thinking you all are trying to take what I have away from me. maybe instead of assuming, learn something instead . ..?
