My Mother Is Your Mother, and I Don't Want to Look Like Her

As a little girl, i resented that. Sure, i didn't want to look like her, because i wanted to be my own person. Growing up in that way definitely gave me the feeling that it, it really was, i, i,. i the ultimate chosen family. They were uninterested in whatever race or gender they were completely open to whoever the children that were brought there would be. That was very much their idea about what life was.
