Wow, there are some tough childhoods here.
Mine wasn't all bad. I had fun times and I know my parents love me. I also can't remember ever having a fight with my brother, who is about 18 months younger than me.
However, my mum did cause us some grief due to some of her issues growing up. I strongly believe her and dad stayed together because of my brother and I, when I think they should've divorced many years ago. Because of mum, I think that my childhood did suffer a little. She was always sheltering us, too, and now I feel like I can't accomplish anything (although I have spread my wings more in the last 4 years or so). My boss even commented that I have had a sheltered life some time ago.
Overall, despite my mum, I have no reason to complain compared to some of the other stories here.
EDIT: I should also mention that school was a particularly bad time for me, especially year 9 in high school. That has probably caused me the most damage of any year of my life, I reckon. So yeah, that was bad for me.
