Yes, I am the youngest. My sisters remember when my Dad was not drunk 
ALL the time. I can't remember him not drinking. When I was a pre-teen, 
I realized for the first time that NOT everybodies Father was a drunk. 
I used to follow him down to the bar and beg him not to go. It would 
make him mad, to say the least. Now I realize that he was mad because 
my begging made him feel guilty. He worked on job sites (like disney 
world) so he would be gone for weeks at a time. Sometimes, the paychecks
never made it home. I used to hate him for making my mother suffer and 
struggle.
