“Why write a memoir? It means the world becomes yours. If you don‛t do it, it drifts away and takes a whole piece of
yourself with it, like an amputation. To attack it and attack it and get it under control- it‛s like taking possession of your life,
isn‛t it?”
-Ted Hughes

Moving in with my momThe summer between my seventh grade and eighth grade year I moved out of my dad’s house and into my mom’s.
It was a difficult thing to do, but my mom and I had been talking about it for some me. She moved closer to my dad’s house so that I wouldn’t have to change schools. Then, when it was me to stay with her for six weeks in the summer, we decided I would go back at the end. My mom hired a lawyer, and I had to see a mediator. The court appointed mediator told me I might have to stay with my dad if that’s what the courts decide. But I knew that I would get to stay with my mom. Eventually the court made its decision, and I was able to legally be with my mom. Aer that I only saw my dad at Christmas.
