It causes a single mother to have bruises and a black eye...It causes a daughter to draw on her skin with silver...It causes a father to leave his family...It suffocates and ruins relationships...It is a murderer, yet it runs free in the streets, waiting to claim it's next victims...Later on it can cause a mother to play both the roles of mother and father...It causes a daughter to cry herself to sleep at night and attempt suicide...It wears a mask to disguise the problems that it causes... I am that daughter and my father left, leaving my mother to be that mother... All because of this heartless criminal....
