The beginning

 Imagine growing up , not knowing what your future holds due to your families mistakes?. Believe me it is difficult from succeeding in school to finding a job, my families name has been thrown around the town, chewed up and spat back out. Don't get me wrong back in the days a lot of mistakes were probably made, but should the rest of us be judged upon that?. I don't believe so, my name is different to my families, but still when I was in school they still called me by there name, which in my head I knew if I left school with grades with that name I didn't stand a chance, I was looked at like I had constantly done wrong when there was people out there doing wrong at that precise moment , my mum from a young age was selling drugs to make sure we had the things we needed and when we needed them , yes she broke the law , so has my brother he has been to prison a few times but as a genuine part of this community and someone who wants to do well , should I really be judged for them doing that?.
