Welcome to Gaia! ::

So.. I have a sister. We have the same mom, but not the same dad. Her dad was John Menear. When my mom got pregnant, she wasn't sure what to do. We lived in a studio apartment and she was a waitress.. and John was on meth. She didn't want her to live that life. My great aunt Kathy wanted another child so bad, and she got pregnant. Her daughter pushed her down the stairs. She lost her baby as well as the ability to ever have another child. So we all saw the opportunity for Kathy to have another child as well as for my sister to have a better life. She was born almost exactly ten years after me. Well, her dad's demons finally caught up with him when she was just a toddler. He was on a business trip and was shot to death in his motel room.

The girls at Darrien's school are evil.. she's 11. I don't like saying bad things about kids.. but seriously.. these kids are little bitches. Darrien goes to a private school. You either have to be smart as ******** to get in.. or rich as ********. I went to her school, and you can tell who the rich ones are. I watched them on the playground, and was ******** appalled. There were these two little girls with raggedy looking clothes. They were trying to play with the rich girls. The rich girls laughed at them... they refused to play with them. And poor Darrien didn't fit in anywhere. The other kids know she's adopted, and she has no friends at all there. She tells me about how they make fun of her.

Well, I guess it escalated pretty bad. These girls at school hurt her.. bad. They told her that her real parents didn't love her.. and that her dad didn't really get killed, he committed suicide because he was so disappointed in her.

My sister tried to kill herself. This beautiful little girl, 11 years old, was caught trying to put bullets in her dads gun so she could shoot herself.

So she's in the mental hospital, and one of those little bitches is in juive.

I'm just disgusted with the whole thing, and Kathy, her mom, says she's not taking her out of that school. Well, that's ******** up. I'd be homeschooling her after something like that. If my sister commits suicide like she planned, I will not forgive Kathy if it's cause she put her back in that school.

I can't believe kids are that cruel, I can't believe she tried to kill herself.. and I can't believe Kathy plans on sending her back there..

I wish she could stay here.. but she really can't. We don't have the room, the money.. or anyone to look after her when we go to work. Not to mention Kathy wouldn't let her, and even if she did we could get in trouble for her not going to school.. we certainly can't afford to home school.

I just wish I was rich and had a big house where everyone could live and I could take them all away from their horrible situations. Everyone! That's what I would do if I were "Oprah-rich."

But I will probably go so her in the hospital.

That's awful. Kids are really mean.

I agree with Tony, going to see her sounds like a great idea.

I'm really sorry to hear that..

I had it pretty hard growing up too.. but I can't really imagine how bad it must be for her. I almost wish now.. actually.. I do wish she didn't know the truth. I think she would have been better off not knowing about being adopted, and definitely not knowing about her dad. They should have waited until she was older.

I don't think I've really grasped it yet.. it's just so hard to believe. My little sister, getting caught trying to put bullets in a gun?? Eleven years old.. it just boggles my mind. I don't think I even knew what suicide was until I was like thirteen.. much less thought about it.

The whole thing was just so bold.. it goes beyond why most people, especially young girls "attempt" suicide. Normally they'll do it for attention.. try to get caught. Most will take pills or cut because they know they won't actually die but they can still prove a point.. but a gun? That's not a cry for help or attention. I mean.. maybe she didn't grasp what it really meant fully.. but that's death. At that moment she actually truly wanted to die. It's.. just so scary, I don't even know what to think or do.

I'd like to take that gun and hunt down the little b***h that hurt your sister like that.

I'd like to scream at Kathy. After what your sister had just intended to do, she wants her to go back to that same school?

That disgusts me.

I hope your sister feels better soon. I will pray for her, even though I am not Catholic, nor do I believe that there is a god. But I'm wishing with my entire being that she'll find strength and comfort. No one deserves to be hurt like that, only those who do that kind of thing to others so cruelly.

My thoughts are with her right now, so please try to give her support from me as well. Thanks.

Well, I'm going to go see her as soon as I can. She lives in Kansas, so it's hard for me, but I know my mom will be going there on Saturday, so I'm going to send a present with her.

Thank you guys.. for relating.. sharing.. and caring! I love you guys.

Kid's can be as cruel as anyone.. It's sad =(
I really hate kid's sometimes..
