For the children

who have the parents of this kind.

When your father tells you that you are worthless, please don't listen to him. When you hear your mom crying in the other room, please don't leave. When your brother or sister tell you they hate you, please ignore all. Please always be passionate in what you do, and never give up. I just want you to feel good about yourself. Even if it doesn't matter to your family, let it matter to yourself.

Love Always, Lauren
