I could answer that easily now but it got me thinking about what has made me happy throughout my life . What made me happy as a child was finding things that took me away from my house ( never a home ) . I was so happy to find things to do to get away from my abusive father and cold hearted mother ( not really parents ) . I was happy to have Deb & Vic around and my best friend Michael .

Question: Who seems to be abusive to the narrator ?
Answer: Their friend Deb .Their mom .Their friend Vic .None of the above choices .
